As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote This school is all over the map, they have alot of excellent programs BUT the nonteaching staff makes the administration of rules and codes listed in the student handbook a last priority. Discipline is arbitrary and fairly draconian. Advisory classes are pretty pointless (our advisory instructor didn't know who our child was after having her for 3 years), this school focuses on your child if they are an achiever and ignores them if they have any academic issues at all, homeschooling is the better option here.

Open Quote This is a terrific school! The building is brand new and looks great! Plus, they offer a long list of AP classes, national-award-winning CTE classes, excellent music programs (the choir is especially good), and highly ranked sports teams. My son is a student at OHHS and loves it!! Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
