There were 123 Hispanic students enrolled in Aurora City School District in the 2023-24 school year, a 15% increase from the 107 Hispanic students in the previous school year, according to the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Data showed that Aurora City School District welcomed 2,997 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, Hispanic students made up 4.1% of the student body, making them the third most represented ethnicity in the district.

Aurora City School District roughly covers five schools within Portage County and has its main office in Aurora.

Among the five schools in Aurora City School District, Aurora High School recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic students in the 2023-24 school year, with a total of 38 students.

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.
