Summary

Mound Elementary School is a public elementary school in Cleveland, Ohio, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 369 students. The school is part of the Cleveland Municipal School District, which is ranked 675 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mound Elementary School consistently ranks among the lowest-performing schools in Ohio, with proficiency rates well below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 0% to 17.1% in mathematics and 0% to 17.1% in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 47.6% to 69.1% in mathematics and 54.4% to 67.7% in English Language Arts. The school also has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 51.5% to 67.9% in recent years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, the school's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, with the school's ranking for African American students and low socioeconomic status students in the bottom 5-10% of Ohio elementary schools.

While Mound Elementary School is struggling, the nearby schools in the Cleveland Municipal School District, such as Miles Park School, Dike School of Arts, and Albert Bushnell Hart, also perform poorly, with proficiency rates generally below the state averages. This suggests a systemic issue within the district that extends beyond just Mound Elementary School. Some of the charter schools in the area, such as Hope Academy Northcoast, Cleveland College Preparatory School, and Constellation Schools: Eastside Arts Academy, show slightly better academic performance compared to the traditional public schools, but still struggle to meet state standards.
