Summary:
The Summit Academy Akron Middle School is the sole middle school in the data set, serving grades 6-8. With only 76 students enrolled, it is a relatively small school located within the Summit Academy Akron Middle School district.
The school faces significant challenges, ranking in the bottom 20% of Ohio middle schools in 2024-2025 and performing well below state averages on standardized tests across all grade levels and subjects. Its 8th grade science proficiency rate of 29.2% is less than half the state average of 63%, and its math proficiency rates range from just 11.8% in 6th grade to 21.7% in 7th grade, compared to state averages of 51.9% and 50% respectively. The school also struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 37.5%.
While the data set does not provide information on the school's funding sources or student demographics, the low academic performance and high absenteeism suggest that the school may face resource constraints and other challenges that impact student outcomes. Further investigation would be necessary to identify the root causes of the school's struggles and develop targeted strategies to improve student achievement and engagement.
