There were 488 12th grade students enrolled in Darke County schools in the 2023-24 school year, 7.8% less than the previous year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Greenville Senior High School welcomed most of the 12th grade students in the county, registering 188 students.

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

Statewide, Darke County ranked 43rd in enrollment numbers, with a total of 7,630 students enrolled in the 2023-24 school year. It was also ranked 43rd 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.
