Summary

The School of One is a public high school in Cleveland, Ohio, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 257 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.

The School of One has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Ohio high schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 647 and 743 out of around 800-900 high schools. The school has maintained a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of this period, indicating it is performing well below average compared to other schools in the state. The school's four-year graduation rates have ranged from 62.6% to 76.5%, significantly lower than the state average of around 85-90%. Additionally, the school has had very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 39.5% to 56.1% in recent years, much higher than the state average.

The School of One's performance on Ohio state tests is consistently well below the state and Cleveland Municipal averages across all subject areas, including English, math, science, and social studies. For example, in 2024-2025, the school had only 0% proficient in Geometry, compared to 42.8% statewide and 17.4% for the Cleveland district. The school's proximity to several other low-performing Cleveland public high schools suggests systemic issues that extend beyond the individual school. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive, district-wide approach to improve educational outcomes for students in this community.
