There were 24 Hispanic students enrolled in Fairbanks Local Schools in the 2023-24 school year, a decrease from the 28 Hispanic students in the previous school year, according to the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Data showed that Fairbanks Local Schools welcomed 1,028 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, Hispanic students made up 2.3% of the student body, making them the second most represented ethnicity in the district.

Fairbanks Local Schools roughly covers four schools within Union County and has its main office in Milford Center.

Among the four schools in Fairbanks Local Schools, Fairbanks High School recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic students in the 2023-24 school year, with a total of 11 students.

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.
