Summary:
ZIP code 45810 covers Ada, Ohio, and is home to two public schools serving grades K–12 — Ada Elementary School (grades K–5, 461 students) and Ada High School (grades 6–12, 404 students) — both part of the Ada Exempted Village district, which ranks 139th out of 773 Ohio districts (82nd percentile, 4 stars). There is no separate middle school, so Ada High School includes the middle grades.
Ada Elementary is the district's biggest improver, rising from 3 stars and the 58th percentile in 2023–24 to 4 stars and the 84th percentile in 2025–26. Every reported 2025–26 test score is above the state average, including 93.8% proficient in 4th grade math (state: 67.3%) and 82.8% in 5th grade English language arts (state: 70.4%). Its chronic absenteeism, 8.9%, is below the district's 11.8%. Ada High School has been a 4-star school for three straight years, with a 100% graduation rate in 2025–26 and strong results in American Government (93.9%), Algebra I (91.9%) and Biology (85.5%). Its weak spot is Geometry, at 42.6% proficient versus the state's 43.3%, down from 53.1% the year before. High school absenteeism, 14.5%, is above the district rate.
A few caveats for families: Ada High's free/reduced-lunch rate is 93.07%, very high, yet its test scores and graduation rate remain strong; the elementary figure is blank in the data and should be treated as unknown, not as zero. Spending per student (2018–19 data) was $10,882 at the high school and $9,548 at the elementary, and student-teacher ratios in 2024–25 were 15.5 and 16.4. Sixth grade moved from elementary to high school reporting between years, so some year-over-year comparisons are less direct.
