Cambridge High School had the highest enrollment among Guernsey County schools, welcoming 519 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 boys, and 49.3% were girls.

Data also showed that most of the students were white, representing 90.9% of Cambridge High School's total enrollment.

Among the 13 schools in Guernsey County, Buckeye Trail Elementary School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 471 students, while Cambridge Primary School welcomed 454 students to be ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Cambridge High School is part of Cambridge City, which generally encompasses schools within Guernsey County, with its main office in Cambridge.

In the previous school year, Cambridge High School still had the highest number of students among Guernsey 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.
