TOLEDO, Ohio — The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce (ODEW) released its annual school district report cards for the 2024-2025 school year Monday, grading school districts on several criteria.
The department used the same scale during the 2024-2025 school year as it did the previous year, offering a year-to-year comparison across the state. ODEW scored schools out of five stars, with five being the highest.
For the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 school years, the department did not provide overall reports because of complications caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to that, school districts received a letter rating on a scale of A-F, similar to a student report card.
How scoring works
Each district is scored on five components: achievement, progress, gap closing, early literacy
