There were 1,083 Hispanic students enrolled in Middletown City School District in the 2023-24 school year, a 9.4% increase from the 990 Hispanic students in the previous school year, according to the Ohio Department of Education & Workforce.

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.
