What stands out about Ripley-Union-Lewis-Huntington Local

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +24.1% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Ohio's statewide +19.8% by 4.3 points, a growth rate faster than 72% of the 604 Ohio districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 780 to 702 students (10.0% down) across FY2019–FY2023 while the instructional salary pool per teacher went up.
