Warner Girls Leadership Academy

Summary:

Warner Girls Leadership Academy is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Cleveland, Ohio, part of the Cleveland Municipal school district. The school has a predominantly African American student population and has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Ohio elementary schools based on statewide assessments.

Warner Girls Leadership Academy faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates reaching over 50%, academic performance well below state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects, and persistent achievement gaps for vulnerable student subgroups like female, African American, and low-income students. Despite consistent funding, the school has failed to show meaningful improvement over the past decade. Interestingly, the nearby Village Preparatory School Woodland Hills, a public charter school serving a similar student population, appears to be performing slightly better on statewide metrics, raising questions about the effectiveness of the traditional public school model versus the charter school model in this community.

The school's struggles with student engagement, equity, and academic achievement suggest systemic challenges that go beyond just funding or resources. Addressing the root causes, whether through instructional changes, school climate initiatives, or community partnerships, will be crucial for driving long-term success at Warner Girls Leadership Academy. Tackling the high chronic absenteeism rates may be a key lever for improving student learning and achievement at the school.

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.
