The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,253 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 57.5% local, 32.9% state, and 9.7% 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 $93,733 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 65/100, ranked #119 of 822 in Ohio against a state average of 46 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

a 295.7:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 25.6% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 84.4% White, 11.5% Hispanic or Latino, 0.8% Asian across the district's schools.

Patrick Henry Elementary School accounts for 37.5% of all Patrick Henry Local student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Patrick Henry Local-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.

Patrick Henry Local has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 68.7% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch

free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
