Summary:
ZIP code 44721 in Canton, Ohio contains exactly one high school: GlenOak High School, a large 9–12 campus with 2,086 students in the Plain Local district. Because it is the only school in this ZIP code, there are no local school-to-school comparisons to make; the useful benchmarks are GlenOak against its own district and against Ohio statewide results, along with how it has changed over time.
Academically, GlenOak performs above the Ohio average in five of the six End-of-Course subjects tested in 2025–2026. Its clearest strengths are English II, at 77.5% proficient versus 62.7% statewide, and Biology, at 80.3% versus 67% statewide. Math is the uneven area: Geometry sits at 43% proficient, slightly below Ohio's 43.3% and below the district's 45.9%, while Algebra I improved sharply year over year, up 10.3 points to 69%, but still trails the district's 76.7% by 7.7 points. Overall, GlenOak's rank is 318 of 795, placing it at the 60th percentile with 3 stars — a standing that has held steady across three years even as its numeric rank improved from 346. The Plain Local district itself ranks 212 of 773, at the 73rd percentile with 4 stars, though district and high school rankings are separate systems.
Outside of test scores, GlenOak's 93.2% graduation rate is essentially level with the district's 93.3%. Chronic absenteeism is 16.1%, about 0.9 points above the district's 15.2%, meaning roughly one in six students is chronically absent. Context matters here: 42.38% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch and the student-teacher ratio is 22.6, both indicators of a large, moderately high-need school. Per-student spending is listed at $8,163, but that figure dates to 2018–2019 and should be read as historical context rather than a current measure of resources.
