Summary

Cleveland Early College High is a public high school serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 272 students. Located in Cleveland, Ohio, the school is part of the Cleveland Municipal school district, which is ranked 675 out of 828 districts in the state.

Cleveland Early College High consistently ranks among the top high schools in Ohio, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores significantly outperform the Cleveland Municipal district and the state of Ohio across various subjects, including American Government, American History, Biology, English II, Geometry, and Algebra I. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 95.6% of students were proficient or better in American Government, compared to 58.3% in the Cleveland Municipal district and 72.6% statewide. The school also excels in serving underrepresented student populations, ranking among the top 6 high schools in Ohio for African American students and the top 13 for low socioeconomic status students.

Cleveland Early College High's exceptional performance is further highlighted by its 100% four-year graduation rate for the past two school years, significantly higher than the district and state averages. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate, while lower than the district average, remains a concern at 55.7% in the 2024-2025 school year. Interestingly, Cleveland Early College High is located in close proximity to several other high-performing public schools, including the Cleveland School of Science & Medicine and the Cleveland School of Architecture & Design, suggesting potential for collaboration and sharing of best practices. While the school excels in serving underrepresented populations, its performance for gifted and talented students is less impressive, ranking 194 out of 312 Ohio high schools in the 2021-2022 school year, with a 2-star rating.
