Data showed that Washington County welcomed 6,884 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, Asian or Pacific Islander students comprised 0.2% of the student body to be the least represented ethnicity in the county.

Marietta High School was the only school in Washington County that enrolled Asian or Pacific Islander students in the 2023-24 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.
