Akron City School District had the highest enrollment among Summit County districts, welcoming 20,103 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, 51.6% of them were boys, and 48.4% were girls.

The most represented ethnicity among Akron City School District students was Black, with 47.1% of students identifying as Black.

Among the 16 districts in Summit County, Stow-Munroe Falls City School District ranked second in enrollment numbers with 5,062 students , while Hudson City School District welcomed 4,556 students to be ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Akron City School District generally encompasses schools within Summit County with its main office in Akron.

In the previous school year, Akron City School District also had the highest number of students among Summit County districts.

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.
