Cleveland Elementary School

Q: Is Cleveland Elementary School a good school?

Cleveland Elementary School ranks 192 nd of 276 Oklahoma elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Cleveland Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with a diverse student population of over 400 students. The school has consistently outperformed the Oklahoma City and statewide averages in academic proficiency, particularly in mathematics, but has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years.

One of the key strengths of Cleveland Elementary is its relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.5 to 14.7 over the past three school years, which is lower than nearby schools like Kaiser Elementary and Eugene Field Elementary. However, the school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 62.84% to 67.16%, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students compared to the state average.

Despite its academic strengths, Cleveland Elementary's statewide ranking has declined from a high of 57th out of 407 Oklahoma elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 192nd out of 276 in 2022-2023. This suggests that the school may be facing challenges that are impacting its overall performance and ranking. When compared to nearby schools in the Oklahoma City district, Cleveland Elementary generally outperforms them in academic proficiency, particularly in mathematics, but some schools, such as Wilson Elementary, have significantly higher academic achievement and statewide rankings.

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.

3 out of 5 stars?? I'm thinking many voters don't even live in the district. This is a great school! All 3 of my children are in or have went through Cleveland. Parental involvement, great teachers, highly recommended. Close Quote

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.
