District-Level NCES Analysis

Harrison Hills City operates 2 public schools serving 1,406 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Ohio. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 1,319 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Harrison County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $24,875 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 61.8% local, 30.5% state, and 7.7% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $72,403 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 61/100, ranked #171 of 822 in Ohio against a state average of 46 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 2 schools offering Advanced Placement (2 AP courses district-wide), a 273:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 30.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 91.9% White, 2.0% African American, 0.6% Asian across the district's schools.

Harrison Central Elementary School accounts for 58.6% of all Harrison Hills City student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Harrison Hills City-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. 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.

Harrison Hills City student-counselor ratio is 273:1 — 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 Harrison Hills City is typically wider than the Harrison Hills City-aggregate figure suggests.

Harrison Hills City chronic absenteeism rate is 30.3% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)

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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
