Summary:
Summit Academy Community School Alternative Learners-Lorain is the sole elementary school serving grades K-8 in the Summit Academy Community School Alternative Learners-Lorain district, located in Lorain, Ohio. With an enrollment of just 63 students, the school has consistently struggled with low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and a poor overall ranking and rating.
The school's academic performance on Ohio state tests is significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas, with 0% proficiency rates in Science, Math, and English Language Arts for most grades. This trend has persisted for several years, indicating that the school needs to implement substantial interventions and improvements to address the learning needs of its diverse student population, which is 57.14% White, 12.7% African American, 20.63% Hispanic, 3.17% Native American, and 6.35% two or more races.
In addition to the school's academic struggles, it also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 64.2% for the 2023-2024 school year. This is a significant concern that can have a detrimental impact on student learning and outcomes. The school's low ranking of 1,574 out of 1,577 Ohio elementary schools and its 0-star rating from SchoolDigger further reflect the overall poor performance and quality of Summit Academy Community School Alternative Learners-Lorain, which may make it difficult to attract and retain students, as well as secure resources and support to drive improvements.
