Summary:
Case Preparatory Academy is the only school in the Case Preparatory Academy district, a K–8 elementary school in Akron, Ohio serving 313 students across grades K–8, with state test results reported for grades 3–8 in math, English language arts, and science.
Because there is just one school here, the useful comparisons are against Ohio state averages and the school's own prior-year results. On the 2025–2026 state tests, proficiency was far below state averages in nearly every grade and subject. Math was the weakest area, with a simple average of about 10.3% proficient versus roughly 57.6% statewide, and several grades under 10% proficient, including 4th grade math at 3.2%, 6th grade math at 4.0%, and 8th grade math at 7.4%. ELA averaged about 29.6% against roughly 62.1% statewide, and science averaged about 18.3% against about 62.0%. Chronic absenteeism stood at 76.2% in 2025–2026, meaning more than three-quarters of students were chronically absent. The school ranked 1406 of 1560 Ohio schools (10th percentile, 0 stars), while the district ranked 4th percentile. The student-teacher ratio was 18.4 in 2024–2025.
There is one clear bright spot: 5th grade ELA reached 69.6% proficient, only 0.8 points below the state average of 70.4% and up 22.0 points from 47.6% the year before. That result stands out sharply against every other ELA grade, which ranged from 16.0% to 29.6%. Elsewhere, changes year over year were mixed and uneven: 3rd grade math rose from 5.7% to 22.2% and 5th grade math from 0% to 13.0%, but 4th grade math fell from 26.1% to 3.2% and 4th grade ELA dropped from 47.8% to 16.1%. Families should note that the most urgent needs appear to be math and science achievement, broader ELA improvement beyond 5th grade, and a serious response to chronic absenteeism.
