Jefferson High School is a Title I public high school that is part of the Jefferson Township Local school district, located in Dayton, OH with about 150 students offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 11 teachers, Jefferson High School has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1.
