Summary:
ZIP code 44039 contains a single high school, North Ridgeville High School, which serves grades 9–12 with 1,248 students as part of the North Ridgeville City district, so the most useful comparison for parents is between this school, its district, and Ohio overall rather than between competing local high schools.
The school is a strong performer. In 2025-26 it ranked 172nd of 795 Ohio high schools — the 78th percentile, earning 4 stars — and it exceeded the state proficiency rate in all six End of Course subjects tested, with margins from +8.2 points in Geometry to +17.4 points in American History. Social studies and science are particular strengths: American History reached 90.6% proficient, American Government 88.3%, and Biology 79.9%. English II also improved the most year over year, rising from 70.7% to 76.7%. The graduation rate is 96.2%, matching the district and reflecting that nearly every student finishes on time.
Two areas deserve attention. Math is the weakest subject: Geometry came in at 51.5% and Algebra I at 72.9%, both still above state averages but down about five points from the prior year while state math results rose, narrowing the school's advantage. North Ridgeville City's chronic absenteeism is 14.3%, but the high school's rate is 20.9% — roughly one in five students — a meaningful gap worth monitoring. The school's percentile has also eased from 83 in 2023-24 to 78 in 2025-26, though it holds 4 stars each year. About 31.09% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch in 2024-25, and the student-teacher ratio is 18.9.
