Chardon Local School District had the highest enrollment among Geauga County districts, welcoming 2,622 students during the 2022-23 school year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 52.5% of them were boys, and 47.5% were girls.

Data also showed that most of the students were white, representing 90.4% of Chardon Local School District's total enrollment.

Among the five districts in Geauga County, Kenston Local School District ranked second in enrollment numbers with 2,529 students , while West Geauga Local School District welcomed 2,045 students to be ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Chardon Local School District generally encompasses schools within Geauga County with its main office in Chardon.

In the previous school year, Chardon Local School District also had the highest number of students among Geauga County districts.

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.
