Lima Senior High School welcomed most of the 11th grade students in the county, registering 241 students.
Within Allen County schools, the highest student count was found in kindergarten, with the smallest class sizes seen in pre-kindergarten.
Statewide, Allen County ranked 26th in enrollment numbers, with a total of 13,500 students enrolled in the 2023-24 school year. It was ranked 27th 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.
