Green Inspiration Academy

Public, Charter Grades K-8

1217^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 1,558 Ohio Elementary Schools

Better than 22% of Ohio elementary schools

Summary

Green Inspiration Academy is a public charter elementary school serving 144 students in grades K-8 in Cleveland, Ohio. Despite its small size, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Ohio elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of the key issues at Green Inspiration Academy is its extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 40.9% to 65.0% over the past few years. This is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby Dorothy E Lewis Elementary, Bryden Elementary, and Warrensville Heights Elementary schools, which have rates ranging from 7.6% to 37.1%. The school's students also perform well below the state average on Ohio state assessments, with only 35.7% of 3rd graders proficient in math compared to 64.4% statewide, and just 10% of 8th graders proficient in math compared to 50% statewide.

While Green Inspiration Academy serves a high-need student population, the nearby public schools demonstrate that high performance is possible even in challenging urban environments. Solon City, Beachwood City, and Warrensville Heights City districts all have schools that significantly outperform Green Inspiration Academy on key metrics. Addressing the root causes of the school's high chronic absenteeism and low academic achievement will be critical for improving student outcomes and ensuring the school can effectively fulfill its educational mission.
