There were 1,814 Black students enrolled in Mt Healthy City School District in the 2023-24 school year, a 6.2% decrease from the 1,933 Black students in the previous school year, according to the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Data showed that Mt Healthy City School District welcomed 2,770 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, Black students made up 65.5% of the student body, making them the most represented ethnicity in the district.

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.
