District-Level NCES Analysis
Brookfield Local operates 4 public schools serving 992 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Ohio. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 high, 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 Trumbull County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $12,023 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 966 Ohio districts by per-pupil spending. See how Ohio compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 37.8% local, 52.7% state, and 9.5% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 41/100, ranked #482 of 806 in Ohio against a state average of 46, in line with the typical spread seen across the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 4 schools offering Advanced Placement (2 AP courses district-wide), a 324.6:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 48.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 89.0% White, 1.8% Hispanic or Latino, 0.6% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Brookfield Elementary School, with a diversity index of 20.9/100.
Its largest campus is Brookfield Elementary School, enrolling 378 students (39% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Brookfield Online School, at 10 students, a 38x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Brookfield Elementary School accounts for 38.1% of all Brookfield Local student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Brookfield Local-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.
Brookfield Local school enrollment varies 38× across entities
Brookfield Local school enrollment ranges from 10 students (lowest) to 378 students (highest), a spread of 368 students. That ratio is among the widest observed and reflects extreme enrollment heterogeneity, the district operates both small specialty programs and large comprehensive campuses inside a single budgeting unit. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Brookfield Local student-counselor ratio is 325:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
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 Variation between sub-units within Brookfield Local is typically wider than the Brookfield Local-aggregate figure suggests.
Brookfield Local chronic absenteeism rate is 48.4% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
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 Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Brookfield Local has 4 schools, including 2 elementary, 1 high, 1 combined. Total enrollment is 992 students.
