Summary

Renwood Elementary School is a public elementary school in Parma, Ohio, serving 252 students from kindergarten to 4th grade. The school is part of the Parma City School District, which is ranked 439 out of 835 school districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Renwood Elementary School stands out for its higher percentage of white students (71.43%) compared to nearby schools, which have more diverse student populations. However, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 4.1% in 2019-2020 to 18.3% in 2022-2023. Additionally, Renwood's test scores in Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) for 3rd and 4th grades are generally lower than the Parma City and Ohio state averages. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 65.87% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

Renwood Elementary School's performance, as measured by its statewide ranking and SchoolDigger star rating, has declined over the years, falling from 610 out of 1,676 Ohio elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 931 out of 1,596 in 2022-2023, with a consistent 2-star rating. This is generally lower than the nearby Parma Park Elementary, Pleasant Valley Elementary, and Dentzler Elementary schools, which have higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and better overall rankings. Addressing the socioeconomic and attendance-related factors may be key to improving Renwood Elementary School's academic performance and outcomes for its students.
