Cleveland Elementary School

Summary:

Cleveland Elementary School is a public elementary school in Dayton, Ohio, serving 324 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Dayton City School District, which is ranked 702 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Cleveland Elementary School faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, with proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts below the Dayton City and Ohio state averages across all grade levels. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 32.9% to 47.6% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Consequently, Cleveland Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Ohio elementary schools, with a ranking between 1,254 and 1,504 out of 1,577 to 1,687 schools over the past 10 years.

Interestingly, when analyzing the performance of specific student subgroups, Cleveland Elementary's African American and English Language Learner students perform relatively better compared to the school's overall performance, ranking in the top 40% and top 20% of Ohio elementary schools, respectively, in recent years. This suggests that the school may be providing additional support or resources for these subgroups. However, the school's per-student spending of $11,245 in the 2018-2019 school year is only slightly higher than the Dayton City district average, and it is unclear how these resources are being utilized to support student learning and address the school's challenges. Comparing Cleveland Elementary to nearby higher-performing schools, such as Harman Elementary and Greenmont Elementary, highlights the importance of equitable access to resources and effective educational practices.

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.
