Summary:
Lincoln Park Academy is the sole elementary public charter school serving grades K-8 in Cleveland, Ohio, with a total enrollment of 287 students. While the school faces significant challenges, including consistently low test scores across multiple subject areas and an alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rate of 67.3%, the data provides limited context for fully understanding the school's performance relative to other schools in the area or the state.
Lincoln Park Academy has struggled with low proficiency rates in mathematics, ranging from 22.2% in 8th grade to 63.3% in 3rd grade, and English Language Arts, with rates varying from 30.8% in 4th grade to 55.6% in 8th grade. Science proficiency is also low, with 5th grade at 14.3% and 8th grade at 44.4%, well below state averages. The school's district is ranked 603 out of 828 in Ohio and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, suggesting significant room for improvement.
With a spending per student of $7,208 and a student-teacher ratio of 15.1 to 1, Lincoln Park Academy appears to have relatively limited resources compared to other schools in the state. Addressing the root causes of the school's high chronic absenteeism rate should be a top priority, as this can have a significant impact on student learning and overall school performance. While the data provides a detailed look at Lincoln Park Academy, the lack of comparative information makes it difficult to fully contextualize the school's strengths and weaknesses within the broader educational landscape.
