Evanston Academy

Summary:

Evanston Academy is an elementary school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 253 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Cincinnati Public Schools district, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Evanston Academy faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 43.5% to 61.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and nearby schools. The school's test scores are also generally lower than the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 22%, compared to the state average of 64% and the district average of 38.4%. Evanston Academy's performance has declined over the years, as evidenced by its decreasing statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating.

However, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. While the school's African American students perform relatively well compared to other schools in the state, its performance for other subgroups, such as female students, male students, and students with disabilities, is significantly lower. Nearby schools, such as Hyde Park School and North Avondale Montessori School, have significantly higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates than Evanston Academy.

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.
