Summary

Sullivant Avenue Community School is a public charter elementary school in Columbus, Ohio, serving 234 students in grades K-6. Unfortunately, the school has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in the state, with a statewide ranking between 1400-1537 out of 1558-1676 Ohio elementary schools over the past 10 years.

The school faces significant challenges, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 47.4% to 73.3% over the past 5 years, which is much higher than the state average and nearby schools. Academically, only 8.3-24.1% of Sullivant Avenue students were proficient in English Language Arts, and only 5.7-20% were proficient in Mathematics in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to state averages of 54.5-67.7% and 51.9-64.4%, respectively. The school also struggles to effectively serve its student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 5-20% of Ohio elementary schools for female, male, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and low socioeconomic status students.

Interestingly, the nearby Westgate Alternative Elementary School, West Franklin Elementary School, and Binns Elementary School generally outperform Sullivant Avenue Community School on academic measures, despite serving similar student populations. For example, Westgate Alternative Elementary had 30-64.5% of students proficient in English Language Arts and 18-60% proficient in Mathematics, compared to Sullivant Avenue's much lower proficiency rates. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates and improving instructional quality and support for all student subgroups should be top priorities for the school and the Sullivant Avenue Community School district to improve student outcomes.
