Albert Bushnell Hart

Summary:

Albert Bushnell Hart is an elementary school in Cleveland, Ohio, serving 245 students in grades PK-8. The school is part of the Cleveland Municipal school district, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Albert Bushnell Hart faces significant challenges, with a student population that is 76.73% African American, well above the state average. The school has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.6% to 62.4% in recent years. Academically, the school's performance on Ohio State Tests is significantly below state and district averages, with only 0% of 5th-grade students proficient in Mathematics, compared to 20.6% in the district and 57.4% statewide. The school ranks particularly low for female, male, and low socioeconomic status students, indicating concerning achievement gaps.

Interestingly, the nearby Village Preparatory School Woodland Hills, a public charter school, serves a student population that is 96.52% African American, yet outperforms Albert Bushnell Hart in terms of statewide ranking and academic proficiency. This raises questions about the equity and effectiveness of the instructional practices and support systems at Albert Bushnell Hart, which has seen its statewide ranking steadily decline over the past several years.

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.
