Summary

Alliance Academy of Cincinnati is a public charter elementary school serving 354 students in grades K-8 in Cincinnati, Ohio. The school is part of the Alliance Academy of Cincinnati district, which is ranked 565 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Alliance Academy of Cincinnati faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 55.2% to 70.2% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average and nearby schools like The Norwood Montessori School (36.3%) and Williams Avenue Elementary School (36.3%). The school's test scores are generally below the state averages across various subjects and grade levels, though its 5th-grade science proficiency rate of 70.3% was higher than the state average of 63.4%.

Interestingly, Alliance Academy of Cincinnati performs relatively well for its African American student population, ranking in the top 25% of Ohio elementary schools for this subgroup in recent years. However, the school's performance for special education and disabled students is in the bottom half of Ohio elementary schools. The school's spending per student of $9,224 in 2018-2019 is also lower than the spending levels of some nearby schools, which may indicate a need for additional resources to support student learning. Overall, the school's declining statewide ranking over the past several years suggests the need for significant improvements to better serve its students.
