Summary:
Constellation Schools: Westpark Community Middle is the only school in this area — a middle school serving grades 5–8 with 170 students in Cleveland, Ohio, so everything below compares the school with Ohio state averages and its own past performance.
The school is on a clear upward trajectory. Its state rank improved from 36th percentile in 2023–2024 to 53rd percentile in 2025–2026, moving from 2 stars to 3 stars. Average proficiency across all ten tested grade-subject pairs rose from 47.8% to 57.6% in a single year, while the state average rose only slightly. English Language Arts is the strongest area: every tested grade beat the state average, led by 5th grade ELA at 75.6% and 7th grade ELA at 71.4%. Eighth grade math is a standout at 67.9% proficient versus 52.0% statewide, and 5th grade math is also slightly above state. Gains were largest in 8th grade ELA (+24.7 points), 8th grade math (+23.9), 5th grade math (+19.0), 6th grade math (+15.7), and 5th grade ELA (+13.6).
There are real challenges, though. Math is uneven: 6th grade math is 35.7% proficient against 56.2% statewide (a 20.5-point gap), and 7th grade math is 39.3% versus 48.6%. Science is the weakest subject overall at 53.5% versus 62.0% statewide, mostly because 5th grade science sits 16.4 points below the state, even as 8th grade science is nearly even. Chronic absenteeism is 42.1%, meaning more than two in five students missed enough school to be chronically absent — a significant concern that may be holding back achievement. The student-teacher ratio is 21.2:1, and per-student spending of $6,812 is from 2018–2019, so it may not reflect current conditions. Free/reduced lunch data is not reported. With only 170 students, grade-level cohorts are small, so year-to-year swings should be read with caution.
