Daniel E Morgan School

Summary:

Daniel E Morgan School is an alternative public school in Cleveland, OH, serving 240 students in grades PK-12 as part of the Cleveland Municipal school district. The school faces several challenges, including declining academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and potential racial disparities compared to nearby schools.

Academically, Daniel E Morgan School struggles, with proficiency rates on state tests significantly lower than the district and state averages. For example, in 2023-2024, only 9.4% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Science, compared to 24% for the Cleveland Municipal district and 64% for the state. The school's chronic absenteeism rate has also risen alarmingly, from 28.9% in 2019-2020 to 60.4% in 2022-2023, which can contribute to lower academic achievement.

Compared to the nearby Northeast Ohio College Preparatory School, Daniel E Morgan School has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (97.08% vs. 77.91%), suggesting potential racial disparities in educational opportunities within the district. Despite spending more per student than the nearby charter school, Daniel E Morgan School is not achieving better academic outcomes, raising questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to support student learning.

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.
