District-Level NCES Analysis
Avon Local operates 5 public schools serving 4,583 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Ohio. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 high, 1 middle, 1 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Lorain County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $10,910 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 97 of 966 Ohio districts by per-pupil spending. See how Ohio compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 73.2% local, 19.3% state, and 7.5% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 8/100, ranked #803 of 806 in Ohio against a state average of 46, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 5 schools offering Advanced Placement (18 AP courses district-wide), a 443.6:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 13.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 78.8% White, 8.6% Hispanic or Latino, 4.4% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Avon Early Learning Center, with a diversity index of 39.1/100.
Its largest campus is Avon High School, enrolling 1,417 students (33% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Avon Early Learning Center, at 394 students, a 4x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Avon High School accounts for 30.9% of all Avon Local student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Avon Local-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Avon Local school enrollment varies 3.6× across entities
Avon Local school enrollment ranges from 394 students (lowest) to 1,417 students (highest), a spread of 1,023 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Avon Local student-counselor ratio is 444:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Avon Local chronic absenteeism rate is 13.2% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Avon Local has 5 schools, including 1 high, 2 elementary, 1 middle, 1 combined. Total enrollment is 4,583 students.
