There were 11 Hispanic students enrolled in Meigs County schools in the 2022-23 school year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Data showed that Meigs County welcomed 2,969 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 0.4% of the student body to be the least represented ethnicity in the county.

Meigs Primary School was the only school in Meigs County that enrolled Hispanic students in the 2022-23 school year.

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.
