There were 238 pre-kindergarten students enrolled in Hocking County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 4.4% more than the previous year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Central Elementary School welcomed most of the pre-kindergarten students in the county, registering 67 students.

Within Hocking County schools, the highest student count was found in fourth grade, with the smallest class sizes seen in 11th grade.

Statewide, Hocking County ranked 78th in enrollment numbers, with a total of 3,803 students enrolled in the 2022-23 school year. It was also ranked 78th the year before.

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.
