District-Level NCES Analysis
Hudson City operates 5 public schools serving 4,614 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 Summit County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $16,171 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 966 Ohio districts by per-pupil spending. See how Ohio compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 72.9% local, 21.2% state, and 5.9% 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 44/100, ranked #419 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 5 schools offering Advanced Placement (37 AP courses district-wide), a 416.7:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 8.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 83.5% White, 7.0% Asian, 3.7% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is East Woods Intermediate School, with a diversity index of 30.4/100.
Its largest campus is Hudson High School, enrolling 1,421 students (32% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Mcdowell Early Learning School, at 372 students, a 4x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Hudson High School accounts for 30.8% of all Hudson City student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Hudson City-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.
Hudson City school enrollment varies 3.8× across entities
Hudson City school enrollment ranges from 372 students (lowest) to 1,421 students (highest), a spread of 1,049 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.
Hudson City student-counselor ratio is 417:1 — 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.
Hudson City chronic absenteeism rate is 8.0% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Hudson City has 5 schools, including 1 high, 2 elementary, 1 middle, 1 combined. Total enrollment is 4,614 students.
