Summary

Columbus Bilingual Academy-North is a public charter elementary school serving 516 students in grades K-8 in Columbus, Ohio. The school is part of the Columbus Bilingual Academy-North District, which is ranked 586 out of 828 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school aims to provide a bilingual education, it faces significant challenges. Columbus Bilingual Academy-North has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 38.3% to 61.4% over the past few years, which is much higher than the state average and nearby schools like Parkmoor Elementary (52.6%) and Northtowne Elementary (52.6%). The school's test scores are also generally below state averages across all subjects and grade levels, with its 5th grade science proficiency rate at 49.1% compared to the state average of 63.4%, and its 8th grade math proficiency rate at only 34.2% compared to the state average of 47.6%.

Compared to nearby schools, Columbus Bilingual Academy-North consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Ohio elementary schools, with a ranking between 1077 and 1590 out of 1558-1696 schools over the past 10 years. The school has also received low ratings from SchoolDigger, with 0-2 stars out of 5 during this period. While the school's performance for Hispanic and English Language Learner students is relatively better, its performance for White, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students is in the bottom 30-40% of Ohio schools. Addressing these issues should be a priority for the school and its district to improve educational outcomes for all students.
