There were 149 Black students enrolled in Kings Local School District in the 2023-24 school year, an increase from the 144 Black students in the previous school year, according to the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Data showed that Kings Local School District welcomed 4,845 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, Black students made up 3.1% of the student body, making them the least represented ethnicity in the district.

Kings Local School District roughly covers seven schools within Warren County and has its main office in Kings Mills.

Among the seven schools in Kings Local School District, Kings High School recorded the highest enrollment of Black students in the 2023-24 school year, with a total of 40 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.
