District-Level NCES Analysis
Bucyrus City operates 3 public schools serving 1,106 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Ohio. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 middle, 1 high 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 Crawford County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,576 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 981 Ohio districts by per-pupil spending. See how Ohio compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis.

The district's equity score is 76/100, ranked #34 of 821 in Ohio against a state average of 46, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 271.2:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 42.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.

Bucyrus Elementary School accounts for 50.8% of all Bucyrus City student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Bucyrus City a distant remainder — means Bucyrus City-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: combined. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Bucyrus City school enrollment varies 2.3× across entities
Bucyrus City school enrollment ranges from 247 students (lowest) to 562 students (highest), a spread of 315 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.
The reported share sits between 62.5% and 75%, above a simple majority but below the highest descriptive band used here. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Bucyrus City student-counselor ratio is 271:1 — 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 Bucyrus City is typically wider than the Bucyrus City-aggregate figure suggests.
Bucyrus City chronic absenteeism rate is 42.2% — 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.
Bucyrus City has 3 schools, including 1 combined, 1 middle, 1 high. Total enrollment is 1,106 students.
