Jackson Middle School welcomed most of the eighth grade students in the county, registering 161 students.
Within Jackson County schools, the highest student count was found in fourth grade, with the smallest class sizes seen in pre-kindergarten.
Statewide, Jackson County ranked 68th in enrollment numbers, with a total of 4,552 students enrolled in the 2022-23 school year. It was also ranked 68th the year before.
In 2022, Ohio saw an average student-to-teacher ratio of approximately 1:15, which is an improvement for the state and is lower than the national average of 1:16.
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.
