North Adams Elementary School had the highest enrollment among Adams County schools, welcoming 667 students during the 2022-23 school year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 50.5% of them were girls, and 49.5% were boys.

Data also showed that most of the students were white, representing 97.5% of North Adams Elementary School's total enrollment.

Among the eight schools in Adams County, West Union Elementary School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 660 students, while Peebles Elementary School welcomed 568 students to be ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

North Adams Elementary School is part of Adams County Ohio Valley Local, which generally encompasses schools within Adams County, with its main office in Seaman.

In the previous school year, North Adams Elementary School still had the highest number of students among Adams County schools.

In 2022, Ohio saw an average student-to-teacher ratio of approximately 1:15, which is better than the national average of 1:16. This marks an improvement for the state, especially compared to 2016, when the ratio reached its decade-high at 16.1 students per teacher.

Despite the apparent improvement, this positive trend is overshadowed by a general decline in public school enrollments, which was accelerated by the pandemic. This decline, aligned with the steady number of teachers in the state over the last 10 years, has led to low student-to-teacher ratios.
