Summary:

ZIP code 45121 covers Georgetown, Ohio, and contains three schools — Georgetown Elementary School, Georgetown Junior/Senior High School, and Southern Hills Career Technical Center — that together serve students from prekindergarten through 12th grade, with nominal enrollment of 1,432 students (grade spans overlap, so this is not a count of unique students). The two Georgetown schools belong to the Georgetown Exempted Village district, which ranks 269th of 773 districts statewide — the 65th percentile, with 3 stars.

Georgetown Elementary School (549 students, 17.1 students per teacher) is the strongest performer: chronic absenteeism is 9.7%, below the district's 13.1%, and it was above the state in 8 of 9 listed tests, including 5th-grade science at 77.5% versus 62.7% statewide. Its rank has held steady at the 62nd–63rd percentile with 3 stars. Georgetown Junior/Senior High School (395 students, 14.6 students per teacher) graduates 98.6% of students and beat the state in 10 of 11 listed tests — 7th-grade math 71.0% vs. 48.6% and 8th-grade math 79.7% vs. 52.0% are notable. But its chronic absenteeism is 17.6%, roughly 81% higher than the elementary school's, and its rank slipped to the 49th percentile with 2 stars.

Southern Hills Career Technical Center (488 students) reports the highest free/reduced lunch rate at 57.79% and the highest student-teacher ratio at 21.2 — about 45% higher than the junior/senior high — but no test scores, rank, graduation rate, or chronic absenteeism, so its academic performance cannot be judged from this data. Spending figures exist only for 2018–19 ($8,296 elementary, $8,626 junior/senior high) and are too dated to compare reliably.
