Public, Charter Grades

Summary

Summit Academy School - Lorain is a public charter high school serving grades 6-12 in Lorain, Ohio, with a small student population of around 75 students. Despite its diversity, the school has consistently struggled with low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and fluctuating graduation rates, ranking in the bottom tier of Ohio high schools.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Avon Lake High School, Avon High School, and Marion L. Steele High School, Summit Academy School - Lorain lags significantly in academic achievement, graduation rates, and student engagement. Its proficiency rates range from 0% to 27.3%, well below the state averages, and its chronic absenteeism rate has reached as high as 65%, more than double the state average.

The school's diverse student population, which includes a majority White population (61.33%) and significant percentages of Hispanic (18.67%) and students of two or more races (14.67%), may contribute to the challenges it faces. Targeted interventions and support services focused on improving attendance, academic support, and student engagement could be crucial in addressing the school's performance issues and helping it better serve its students. However, the school's inconsistent graduation rates, ranging from 54.5% to 94.1% in recent years, suggest that there may be underlying factors that need to be addressed as well.
