There were 10 American Indian or Alaskan Native students enrolled in Clark County school districts in the 2022-23 school year, - more than the previous year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Data showed that Clark County school districts welcomed 18,168 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, American Indian or Alaskan Native students comprised 0.1% of the student body to be the least represented ethnicity in the county's school districts.

Among the seven school districts in Clark County, Springfield City School District recorded the highest enrollment of American Indian or Alaskan Native students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 10 students.

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.
