Leggett Community Learning Center

Summary:

Leggett Community Learning Center is an elementary school in Akron, Ohio, serving 371 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Akron City School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Leggett Community Learning Center faces significant challenges, with consistently high chronic absenteeism rates and low academic performance compared to state and district averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 10% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 57.4% statewide and 36.8% in the Akron City School District. The school also ranks particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as White students, African American students, and students with disabilities. However, the school's English Language Learner (ELL) students perform relatively well, ranking in the top 25% of Ohio elementary schools for this subgroup.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Mason Community Learning Center, McEbright Community Learning Center, and Glover Community Learning Center generally perform better than Leggett Community Learning Center on academic measures, despite serving similar student populations. This suggests that factors beyond just student demographics may be contributing to the school's underperformance. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism and providing targeted academic support for all student subgroups will be crucial for improving student outcomes at Leggett Community Learning Center.

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.
