FHSD Earns Top Rating on Ohio School Report Card

Forest Hills School District is proud to once again earn a five-star rating on the Ohio School Report Card. This is the highest possible overall rating awarded to school districts, and only 68 of the 607 total school districts evaluated in Ohio achieved this score for the 2023-2024 school year.

On individual components, FHSD earned five stars in achievement, gap closing, graduation and early literacy which indicates the district “significantly exceeds state standards.” The district also earned a four-star rating in progress, indicating there is “significant evidence that the district exceeded student growth expectations.”

While these results from the Ohio School Report Card place FHSD among the highest performing school districts in the state of Ohio, there is much more to consider when trying to understand the overall educational experience of students. FHSD is committed to providing educational opportunities that enable our students to acquire the knowledge, skills and personal qualities necessary for responsible citizenship and lifelong learning.

To help provide a more comprehensive assessment of the district’s performance, FHSD releases an annual Quality Profile each fall to supplement the state’s report card data. Because the state report card continues to focus primarily on how well students perform on state mandated assessments, FHSD feels it is important to inform families and community members about how the district is providing an unmatched educational experience.

Please check the FHSD website and social media channels in October for the release of the Quality Profile.
