Summary

Cincinnati Technology Academy is a K–8 school on Cincinnati's west side (45211) serving 142 students, and it operates as its own district — one ranked 706th of 773 Ohio districts (9th percentile, 0 stars). In 2025–2026, the school placed 1,340th of 1,560 schools statewide (14th percentile, 1 star). That is an improvement over the 2022–2024 stretch, when it ranked in the 0th–1st percentile, but a decline from 2024–2025, when it reached the 36th percentile and 2 stars. The longer history is volatile: 73rd percentile in 2018–2019 and 64th in 2020–2021, but most other recent years sit in the bottom decile.

Compared with nearby schools, Cincinnati Technology Academy is notably smaller — 142 students versus 570 at Cheviot School, 427 at Covedale School, 721 at Dater Montessori School, and 812 at John Foster Dulles Elementary School. With cohorts that small, year-to-year percentages can swing widely. Chronic absenteeism is the highest among nearby schools: 54.5% in 2025–2026, above Westwood School (50.3%), Midway School (39.8%), and roughly five times the 10–20% rates reported by Oak Hills Local schools. Reported per-student spending in the one year provided (2018–2019) was $6,747, lower than every nearby school, yet the student-teacher ratio of 14.2 is tied with Covedale for the lowest locally.

Academically, the school scored below the state in every reported grade and subject in 2025–2026. Science was 0% proficient in both 5th and 8th grade, and ELA gaps were largest in 8th (9.5%), 6th (12.5%), and 7th (24%). There were real bright spots in 2024–2025 — above-state results in 3rd- through 5th-grade ELA and 6th- and 7th-grade math — but they did not persist. Subgroup results are inconsistent too: low-income students reached the 55th percentile in 2024–2025 but fell to the 17th in 2025–2026. The most urgent priorities appear to be attendance, science, and upper-grade reading and writing.
