Summary:
ZIP code 44622 — covering Dover, Ohio — contains exactly one high school, Dover High School, which serves grades 9–12 with 823 students as part of the Dover City district, rated 229th of 773 Ohio districts (70th percentile, 4 stars).
Academically, Dover High is a solidly above-state performer in most tested subjects. In 2025–2026, its proficiency rates beat Ohio in American History (84.0% vs. 73.2%), Biology (79.3% vs. 67.0%), English II (75.3% vs. 62.7%), and American Government (80.7% vs. 71.6%), with its biggest margins in English II (+12.6 points), Biology (+12.3 points), and American History (+10.8 points). Math is the clear weak spot: Geometry came in at 41.2% versus 43.3% for the state, and Algebra I fell to 52.8% versus 61.6% — a drop of 11.7 percentage points from the prior year, when the school was 5.1 points above the state. Notably, school-level ratings (3 stars each of the last three years, 56th percentile in 2025–2026) trail the district's 4-star, 70th-percentile rating.
Other context for families: the 2025–2026 graduation rate is 86.0%, matching the district, and chronic absenteeism is 19.7% at the school versus 12.0% in the district — roughly one in five students. The student-teacher ratio is 20:1, and per-student spending is listed at $9,022, though that figure is from 2018–2019 and is older than the other data. The free/reduced-lunch percentage is not reported, so socioeconomic context is unknown, and no test scores in this record are suppressed or bounded. With only one high school in the ZIP, there are no local cross-school comparisons; results are subject-specific End-of-Course scores rather than a single overall school grade.
