Summary:
ZIP code 44423, covering the Hanoverton area of Ohio, has two public schools serving about 972 students across the full K–12 span, both in the United Local district: United Elementary School (grades K–8, 431 students) and United High School (grades 9–12, 541 students). The district overall ranks 396 out of 773 Ohio districts — the 49th percentile, with a 2-star rating.
United Elementary School is the stronger of the two, ranking 660 out of 1,560 schools in 2025–2026 — the 58th percentile, with 3 stars — and it has held a 3-star rating for three straight years. Its 2025–2026 results beat the state in most tested grades, including 8th grade math (79.3% proficient vs. 52.0% statewide), 5th grade English language arts (80.3% vs. 70.4%), and 4th grade math (79.5% vs. 67.3%). Its Algebra I End of Course score was 100%, though that likely reflects a small advanced group taking the course early rather than the whole student body. Softer spots appear in 6th grade, where ELA was 47.8% against 56.0% statewide and math was 50.7% against 56.2%. The elementary school also has the higher share of students from lower-income families (42.69% free/reduced lunch vs. 34.01%) yet posts the better results.
United High School ranked 508 out of 795 in 2025–2026 — the 36th percentile, 2 stars — down from the 65th percentile the year before. Results vary by subject: Biology (73.8% vs. 67.0% statewide), English II (74.2% vs. 62.7%), and Geometry (53.3% vs. 43.3%) are above the state, while Algebra I (41.2%, vs. 61.6% statewide and 56.0% districtwide), American Government (61.8% vs. 71.6%), and American History (63.8% vs. 73.2%) trail. The graduation rate is strong at 97.1%, but chronic absenteeism is 17.1% — above the district's 13.2% and the elementary school's 11.6%. The high school also spends more per student ($10,712 vs. $9,309) and has a higher student-teacher ratio (15.4 vs. 14.8).
