Summary:
The Cleveland Arts and Social Sciences Academy is the only school in its one-school district, the Cleveland Arts and Social Sciences Academy district, so there are no sibling schools to compare it against. It is listed as an elementary school but actually serves kindergarten through 8th grade, with 388 students at 10701 Shaker Blvd in Cleveland. For 2025-26 the school ranked 806th of 1,560 Ohio schools — about the 48th percentile, or 2 stars — after reaching the 75th percentile and 4 stars in 2024-25.
Science is the clearest strength: 100% of 5th and 8th graders scored proficient in 2025-26, against state rates of 62.7% and 61.2%, and science results have stayed in the 96%–100% range across both years reported. English language arts sits essentially at the state line (62.6% school vs. 62.1% state). Math is the wild card: the school averaged 86.7% in 2024-25 (state 56.6%) but 50.3% in 2025-26 (state 57.6%). The swing is grade-specific — 7th grade math beat the state by 32.5 points, while 8th grade math fell from 92.1% to 18.6%.
Two context figures matter. Chronic absenteeism is 48.0% in 2025-26 — nearly half of students — a single-year figure with no prior baseline, so its trend is unknown. The student-teacher ratio is 17.6:1 (about 22 teachers for 388 students), and per-student spending is listed at $7,532, but from 2018-19, too old to connect to current results. Free/reduced lunch data is blank, so it should be read as unknown rather than zero. The bottom line: reliable strength in science, reading at the state line, and math that swung from best-in-file to below state, concentrated in grades 3–5 and 8.
