Of the many ethnicities represented in Ohio districts, the most prevalent among students enrolled in Hamilton County districts in 2022-23 were non-Hispanic white, according to Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Of the 100,912 students attending Hamilton County district schools, 45.6% were non-Hispanic white. Non-Hispanic Black students were the second largest ethnicity among the county's schools (34.2%).

In the previous school year, non-Hispanic white students were also the most common group in Hamilton County districts, representing 46.3% of the student body.

Cincinnati Public Schools had the most diverse student body in the county, which included Hispanic, multiracial, non-Hispanic Black, non-Hispanic white, Asian or Pacific Islander and American Indian or Alaskan Native students.

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.
