The school is struggling significantly, consistently ranking among the lowest-performing high schools in Ohio. Only 7.7% of students were proficient in English II, compared to the state average of 60.8%, and the school's four-year graduation rate is just 36.6%, far below the state average and nearby schools like Clark Montessori High School (95.1%) and Withrow University High School (68.4%).

The stark contrast between Queen City Career Prep High School and nearby high-performing schools, such as Walnut Hills High School, which ranks 1st out of 867 Ohio high schools, highlights the need for a deeper examination of the factors contributing to these disparities, including the role of socioeconomic status and racial demographics. Addressing these systemic challenges will be crucial in ensuring that all students in the Cincinnati Public Schools district have the opportunity to succeed academically.
