There were 235 12th grade students enrolled in Henry County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 0.8% less than the previous year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Napoleon Junior/Senior High School welcomed most of the 12th grade students in the county, registering 106 students.

Within Henry County schools, the highest student count was found in 10th grade, with the smallest class sizes seen in pre-kindergarten.

Statewide, Henry County ranked 75th in enrollment numbers, with a total of 3,954 students enrolled in the 2022-23 school year. It was also ranked 75th the year before.

In 2022, Ohio saw an average student-to-teacher ratio of approximately 1:15, which is an improvement for the state and is lower than the national average of 1:16.

Despite the apparent improvement, this positive trend is overshadowed by a general decline in public school enrollments, which was accelerated by the pandemic. This decline, aligned with the steady number of teachers in the state over the last 10 years, has led to low student-to-teacher ratios.
