District-Level NCES Analysis
Northeastern Local operates 6 public schools serving 2,973 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Ohio. The school portfolio breaks down into 3 combined, 1 high, 1 elementary, 1 middle 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 Clark County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $12,030 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 38.4% local, 54.8% state, and 6.8% 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 29/100, ranked #657 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 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (1 AP courses district-wide), a 575.1:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 20.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 90.1% White, 2.4% Hispanic or Latino, 1.9% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Kenton Ridge High School, with a diversity index of 27.8/100.
Its largest campus is Kenton Ridge High School, enrolling 1,025 students (26% of the district's total enrollment).
Kenton Ridge High School accounts for 25.9% of all Northeastern Local student enrollment
That concentration means Northeastern Local-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.
Northeastern Local school enrollment varies 2.3× across entities
Northeastern Local school enrollment ranges from 445 students (lowest) to 1,025 students (highest), a spread of 580 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.
Northeastern Local student-counselor ratio is 575:1 — 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.
Northeastern Local chronic absenteeism rate is 20.1% — 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 Northeastern Local is typically wider than the Northeastern Local-aggregate figure suggests.
Northeastern Local has 6 schools, including 1 high, 1 elementary, 3 combined, 1 middle. Total enrollment is 2,973 students.
