Summary:
The 45693 zip code area is home to two high schools: West Union High School and Ohio Valley Career & Technical Center. While both schools serve a predominantly white student population, they differ in their academic performance, resources, and educational focus.
West Union High School is the larger of the two, with 477 students enrolled, but it has struggled academically, with proficiency rates well below state and district averages across multiple subjects and grade levels. The school's statewide ranking has been in the bottom third of Ohio high schools for the past 3 years, and it has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 40.3%. In contrast, Ohio Valley Career & Technical Center, with 312 students, has a different educational focus as a career and technical school, but lacks historical statewide ranking data.
The differences in resources and educational focus between the two schools suggest that students in the 45693 zip code have access to distinct educational experiences and opportunities. While West Union High School faces significant academic challenges, the specialized curriculum and smaller student-teacher ratio at Ohio Valley Career & Technical Center may provide unique learning opportunities for students interested in career and technical education. The lack of diversity in the student populations at both schools is also an area that may warrant further exploration by the Adams County Ohio Valley Local district.
