There were 3,179 third grade students enrolled in Lorain County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 4.5% more than the previous year, according to reports from the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

Avon Heritage Elementary School welcomed most of the third grade students in the county, registering 337 students.

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

Statewide, Lorain County ranked ninth in enrollment numbers, with a total of 41,345 students enrolled in the 2022-23 school year. It was also ranked ninth 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.
