Summary:
The Ohio College Preparatory School is an elementary public charter school serving grades K-8 with 265 students. While the school has some areas of strength, such as higher-than-average proficiency rates in 5th and 8th grade science, it generally underperforms compared to state averages across many academic metrics.
The school's chronic absenteeism rate is a major concern, standing at a very high 56.9% in the 2024-2025 school year, significantly above the state average. Its test scores are mixed, with some grades performing above the state average but many grades, particularly in math, performing well below. The school's spending per student of $7,648 in 2018-2019 was below the state average, and its student-teacher ratio of 17.9 in 2023-2024 is slightly higher than the typical recommended ratio.
The Ohio College Preparatory School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and star rating from SchoolDigger over the past few years, going from a rank of 873 out of 1,558 Ohio elementary schools and a 2-star rating in 2024-2025 to a rank of 1,397 out of 1,577 and a 1-star rating in 2023-2024. This suggests the school is struggling to improve student outcomes, and addressing the high chronic absenteeism, uneven academic performance, and potential resource constraints will be critical for the school to better serve its students.
