Norwalk High School had the highest enrollment among Huron County schools, welcoming 687 students during the 2022-23 school year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 53.7% of them were boys, and 46.3% were girls.

Data also showed that most of the students were white, representing 77.4% of Norwalk High School's total enrollment.

Among the 21 schools in Huron County, Willard Elementary School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 589 students, while Western Reserve Elementary School welcomed 479 students to be ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Norwalk High School is part of Norwalk City, which generally encompasses schools within Huron County, with its main office in Norwalk.

In the previous school year, Norwalk High School still had the highest number of students among Huron County schools.

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.
