Streetsboro City School District

Streetsboro enrolled 1,852 students in 2025-26. Enrollment peaked at 2,227 in 2009-10. Since 2006-07 it has changed −12.7%, against −27.9% for the regional peer median and −19.5% for the median Ohio district.

Students

Districts that serve free meals to every student report every student as economically disadvantaged. For the 123 Ohio districts where that raised the share by 25 points or more to 95% or above in one year, this briefing uses the district’s last share before the rise.

Where resident students go

Since 2021-22 the state pays community schools, EdChoice private schools and open-enrollment districts directly, so these students no longer appear as deductions in Streetsboro’s budget, but the district still receives no state aid for them and, for most private and charter students in grades K–8, must provide or pay for transportation.

Community

Home values against nearby districts

Across the five most recent Census releases (2016–20 to 2020–24), the median owner-occupied home in Streetsboro averaged $176,760, 4% below the median of the 12 districts within 25 miles ($184,340). That ranks 10th of 13 in the area and at the 58th percentile of Ohio districts (state median $167,900).

U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 5-year estimates, median value of owner-occupied homes (table B25077), in nominal dollars. Consecutive releases share four of their five survey years, so the average is a smoothed level rather than five independent years. Nearby districts are those whose NCES office address lies within 25 miles of Streetsboro's: Woodridge (10 mi, $264,180); Copley-Fairlawn (19 mi, $239,840); Field (12 mi, $195,420); Crestwood (6 mi, $187,880); Manchester Local (Summit) (24 mi, $187,380); Waterloo (16 mi, $184,480); Southeast (15 mi, $184,200); Marlington (23 mi, $182,240); James A Garfield (12 mi, $180,040); Norton (22 mi, $172,080); Coventry (20 mi, $158,700); Springfield Local (Summit) (18 mi, $135,540).

Streetsboro spent $16,992 per pupil on operations in 2024-25, against $17,193 for the peer median and $16,580 for the median Ohio district. Ohio’s formula assumes each district can raise a local share based on its property values and residents’ incomes; the state supplied 22% of Streetsboro’s revenue. At the end of FY2026 the district held $8.3 million in general-fund cash, an unreserved balance of 24.1% of a year’s spending.

Ohio’s H.B. 920 reduction factors cut the effective rate of voted levies as property values rise, so most levies raise a fixed number of dollars and districts must return to voters to keep pace; no district’s effective current-expense rate can fall below 20 mills. Streetsboro’s effective residential rate was 28.59 mills (Ohio median 24.39). Since January 2026, districts can no longer place new emergency, substitute or replacement levies on the ballot.

Wherever this briefing sets Streetsboro beside other districts, it uses the groups below. A group figure is the middle value across its members, each counted equally, so one large member cannot dominate it.

Peers 12 districts

The 12 Ohio districts (city, local and exempted-village districts) most like Streetsboro on four equally weighted factors: total enrollment (compared as a ratio), operating spending per pupil, students per teacher and the share of economically disadvantaged students, each difference scaled by how much the factor varies across districts, and none more than two standard deviations away on any one. The group starts with nearby districts that match closely (within half a standard deviation on average) and fills the rest from anywhere in the state. Peers carry the achievement, spending and staffing comparisons.

Regional peers 12 districts

The 12 districts (city, local and exempted-village districts) within 25 miles of Streetsboro, straight line between district offices, whose profile on the same four factors is comparable: on average within one standard deviation. They carry enrollment, property taxes and home values, and their median sits beneath the peer median elsewhere. A district in both groups appears in both lists.
