Hope Academy Northcoast

Summary:

Hope Academy Northcoast is a public charter elementary school in Cleveland, Ohio, serving around 350 students in grades K-8. The school has a predominantly African American student body, with 76.57% of students identifying as African American in the 2022-2023 school year.

Despite serving a high-need population, Hope Academy Northcoast has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Ohio, with a statewide ranking between 1400-1600 out of around 1600 schools in recent years. The school has received a 0 or 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very poor performance. This is largely due to the school's extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 59.8% to 75.7% in recent years, as well as its low academic proficiency rates across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 4.8% of 5th graders were proficient in math, compared to a state average of 57.4%, and only 12.5% of 8th graders were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to a state average of 49.4%. The school's African American and low-income students perform significantly worse than their peers statewide.

In comparison, the nearby Village Preparatory School Woodland Hills, while also a low-performing school, appears to have slightly better academic outcomes and a lower student-teacher ratio than Hope Academy Northcoast. This suggests that factors such as school culture, instructional practices, and resource allocation may play a role in the schools' relative performance. Addressing the deep-rooted challenges at Hope Academy Northcoast will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that targets the unique needs of its predominantly African American and low-income student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
