McEbright Community Learning Center

Summary:

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

McEbright has consistently been one of the lowest-performing elementary schools in Ohio, ranking in the bottom 20% for the past several years. The school faces significant challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 55.2% in the 2022-2023 school year. This is significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 26.6% to 51.4% chronic absenteeism. Academically, McEbright's proficiency rates on Ohio state tests are much lower than the Akron City and Ohio state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 15.6% of 4th-grade students at McEbright were proficient in math, compared to 43.9% in Akron City and 67.2% statewide.

While the nearby schools in the Akron City School District also face challenges, they generally outperform McEbright on key metrics, such as Mason Community Learning Center, Henry L Robinson Community Learning Center, and Eagle Elementary of Akron. Addressing the persistent low performance, high chronic absenteeism, and other issues at McEbright will likely require a multifaceted approach, including targeted interventions and a focus on addressing the underlying factors that may be contributing to the school's struggles.

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.
