The majority of students in Carroll County districts were non-Hispanic white in the 2022-23 school year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Of the 2,914 students attending Carroll County district schools, 94.5% were non-Hispanic white. Hispanic students were the second largest ethnicity among the county's schools (2.6%).

In the previous school year, non-Hispanic white students were also the most common group in Carroll County districts, representing 95% of the student body.

Brown Local Schools and Carrollton Exempted Village had the most diverse student body in the county, which included Hispanic, multiracial and non-Hispanic white students.

In the 2022-23 school year, the total number of students enrolled in school districts in the county increased 2.4% compared to the previous year.

The main offices of all districts mentioned in the story are located in cities associated with Carroll County.

In 2022, Ohio saw an average student-to-teacher ratio of approximately 1:15, which is better than the national average of 1:16. This marks an improvement for the state, especially compared to 2016, when the ratio reached its decade-high at 16.1 students per teacher.

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.
