There were 268 seventh grade students enrolled in Wyandot County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 1.8% less than the previous year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Upper Sandusky Middle School welcomed most of the seventh grade students in the county, registering 128 students.

Within Wyandot County schools, the highest student count was found in eighth grade, with the smallest class sizes seen in pre-kindergarten.

Statewide, Wyandot County ranked 80th in enrollment numbers, with a total of 3,128 students enrolled in the 2022-23 school year. It was also ranked 80th the year before.

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.
