Data showed that Highland County welcomed 6,456 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, multiracial students comprised 4.5% of the student body to be the second most represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the 18 schools in Highland County, Hillsboro High School recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2023-24 school year, with a total of 36 students.
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.
