Summary:
Cleveland Preparatory Academy is the sole elementary school located in this area, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 142 students. The school's diverse student population includes 30.28% White, 33.8% African American, 27.46% Hispanic, and 8.45% two or more races. However, Cleveland Preparatory Academy faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and a graduation rate well below the state average.
Academically, the school struggles, with only 6.3% of 5th graders proficient or better in Science, compared to the state average of 64%. Math proficiency rates for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades were all below 25%, while state averages ranged from 57.4% to 67.2%. The school's four-year graduation rate for 2018-2019 was just 40.9%, far lower than the state average. Attendance is also a major issue, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 54.5% in the 2023-2024 school year.
Despite these challenges, Cleveland Preparatory Academy does have some positive attributes, including a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.2 to 1. The school's diverse student population could also be an asset if the administration is able to effectively serve the needs of its diverse learners. However, the data suggests that significant improvements are needed in academic achievement, attendance, and other key areas to ensure the success of students at this school.
