Better than 13% of Ohio elementary schools

Summary

Edge Learning is an elementary public charter school located in Akron, Ohio, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 241 students. The school is part of the Edge Learning District, which is ranked 714 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Edge Learning has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 40.8% to 50.2% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby schools like Barber Community Learning Center, Akron Preparatory School, and Mason Community Learning Center. Additionally, Edge Learning's test scores are consistently below the state averages across all grade levels and subjects, with only 14.7% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in Science, compared to the state average of 63.4%.

The school's challenges appear to be systemic, affecting all student subgroups, and the lack of improvement over time suggests a need for a more comprehensive intervention strategy. While the nearby schools are not high-performing themselves, they generally outperform Edge Learning, indicating that there may be opportunities to learn from their practices and approaches. Addressing the root causes of Edge Learning's underperformance, such as attendance, resource allocation, and instructional quality, should be a priority for the school and district leadership.
