Summary:

ZIP code 45693 is served by three schools in the Adams County Ohio Valley Local district: West Union Elementary School (PK–6), West Union High School (7–12), and Ohio Valley Career & Technical Center (11–12). The district ranks 439 of 773 (43rd percentile) with 2 stars. Total enrollment is 1,445, though this may not represent unique students because the career center overlaps with the high school. Free/reduced-lunch data is unreported, and spending data is only available for 2018–2019.

Comparing the schools, West Union Elementary School is the largest (656 students) and has mixed results. Strengths include 5th grade Science (62.8% proficient, near district and state), 5th grade Math (60.3%, above district and state), and 3rd grade ELA (67.1%, above state). But 3rd grade Math (34.5%), 4th grade Math (41.7%), and 4th grade ELA (48.8%) lag well behind district and state. Its rank drifted from 870/1577 (45th percentile) in 2023–24 to 1027/1560 (34th) in 2025–26, staying at 2 stars. West Union High School is the most academically challenged, ranking 636/795 (20th percentile) with 1 star. Math is the biggest concern: Geometry EOC 11.0% proficient, Algebra I 31.1%, 8th grade Math 26.1%, and 7th grade Math 29.6%—all far below district and state. Chronic absenteeism is 27.8% (vs district 20.7%), and graduation rate is 88.5% (vs district 96.3%). Ohio Valley Career & Technical Center has no rank, test scores, or graduation data, but its student/teacher ratio (18.6) is highest.

Key takeaways: The district’s 43rd percentile / 2-star rating masks school-level differences. High school math is the clearest red flag, consistent across multiple measures. Elementary performance is uneven—strong in 5th grade Science/Math and 3rd grade ELA, but weak in 3rd/4th grade Math and 4th grade ELA. Attendance and graduation gaps at the high school also stand out. The career center cannot be fully evaluated from this data. Overall, the strongest pockets are elementary science/ELA and some high school science/social studies, but mathematics remains a consistent challenge, especially at West Union High School.
