Summary

Broadleigh Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Columbus City Schools District in Columbus, Ohio. With 272 students, the school is ranked 1448 out of 1558 Ohio elementary schools and has a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Broadleigh Elementary School faces significant challenges, particularly when compared to nearby schools. The school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 47.7% to 57.8% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, the school's test scores are consistently lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For instance, in 2024-2025, only 16.7% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Science, compared to 30.5% in the district and 63.4% statewide. The performance gaps between student subgroups, such as English Language Learners, suggest that there may be underlying socioeconomic and demographic factors impacting the school's performance.

In contrast, nearby schools like Cassingham Elementary and Maryland Elementary, which are part of the Bexley City School District, have much higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and higher ratings from SchoolDigger. Addressing the challenges at Broadleigh Elementary School will require a comprehensive approach that considers the school's unique context and the needs of its diverse student population.
