Summary:
Canton College Preparatory School is the sole elementary school serving grades K-8 in the Canton College Preparatory School district. This public charter school has a total enrollment of 380 students and is ranked 669 out of 839 elementary schools in Ohio, earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The school's student population is predominantly African American (64.74%), with smaller percentages of Hispanic (12.89%), White (10%), and students of two or more races (12.11%). However, the school faces significant challenges, including a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 56.4% and consistently low academic performance, with test scores well below state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 5th grade science, the school's proficiency rate is 20.4% compared to the state average of 64%, and in 8th grade math, the proficiency rate is 38.7% compared to the state average of 46.3%.
The data suggests that Canton College Preparatory School is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, with persistent low rankings, significant achievement gaps, and high chronic absenteeism rates. This raises concerns about equity and access to quality education for the predominantly minority student population served by the school within the Canton College Preparatory School district.
