District-Level NCES Analysis
Medina City Sd operates 11 public schools serving 6,172 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Ohio. The school portfolio breaks down into 6 elementary, 2 middle, 2 combined, 1 high schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Medina County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,864 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 67.8% local, 24.7% state, and 7.4% 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 32/100, ranked #619 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 11 schools offering Advanced Placement (11 AP courses district-wide), a 627.5:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 16.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 81.2% White, 5.6% African American, 4.6% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Evolve Academy, with a diversity index of 57.0/100.
Its largest campus is Medina High School, enrolling 1,767 students (28% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Evolve Academy, at 12 students, a 147x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Medina High School accounts for 28.2% of all Medina City Sd student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Medina City Sd-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.
Medina City Sd school enrollment varies 147× across entities
Medina City Sd school enrollment ranges from 12 students (lowest) to 1,767 students (highest), a spread of 1,755 students. That ratio is an extreme outlier spread — among the widest gaps observed anywhere in this dataset. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Medina City Sd student-counselor ratio is 628:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
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 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.
Medina City Sd chronic absenteeism rate is 16.9% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
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 Variation between sub-units within Medina City Sd is typically wider than the Medina City Sd-aggregate figure suggests.
Medina City Sd has 11 schools, including 1 high, 2 middle, 6 elementary, 2 combined. Total enrollment is 6,172 students.
