Glenville High School

Summary:

Glenville High School is an alternative public school in Cleveland, Ohio, serving grades 4-12 with a total enrollment of 413 students. The school is part of the Cleveland Municipal School District, which is ranked 692 out of 839 school districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Glenville High School faces significant challenges, including a student population that is 95.64% African American, declining four-year graduation rates (from 76.3% in 2019-2020 to 52.6% in 2023-2024), and an alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rate of 79.3% in the 2023-2024 school year. Academically, Glenville High School students consistently underperform on Ohio State Tests compared to the Cleveland Municipal School District and the state average, with only 1.8% of students proficient or better in Geometry in the 2023-2024 school year.

In comparison, the nearby Northeast Ohio College Preparatory School, a public charter school, has a more diverse student population and a lower student-teacher ratio. Additionally, while Glenville High School spends $13,258 per student, which is higher than the $8,597 spent per student at Northeast Ohio College Preparatory School, this higher spending does not seem to translate into better academic outcomes for Glenville High School students. Addressing the root causes of the school's high chronic absenteeism and equity concerns should be a top priority for the school and district.

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.
