Summary

Case Preparatory Academy is a K–8 charter elementary school at 107 S Arlington St in Akron, Ohio, serving 313 students as its own district.

Statewide, Case Prep ranked 1,406th of 1,560 schools (10th percentile, 0 stars) in 2025–26, and its district ranks 745th of 773 Ohio districts (4th percentile, 0 stars). That is bottom-decile, but it is up from the school's worst stretch in 2021–22 through 2023–24, when it sat at the 3rd–5th percentile. The clearest concern in the data is attendance: 76.2% of students were chronically absent in 2025–26, the highest rate among the eleven nearby schools compared here — above Middlebury Academy (70.3%), Main Preparatory Academy (64.5%), and more than triple Barber Community Learning Center (24.2%), and roughly 35 points above the Akron City district rate (40.9%). Absenteeism has risen three years in a row, from 64.2% to 71.9% to 76.2%.

Math is Case Prep's deepest academic gap. Its average math proficiency of 10.3% is below every nearby school, public and charter alike, including Akron Preparatory School (20.3%) and Edge Learning (39.8%), and three of its six tested grades sit in single digits. English language arts is weak against state averages but competitive with charter peers at 29.6%, and 5th-grade ELA (69.6%) essentially matched the state and beat every nearby school. Class sizes are the largest locally at 18.4:1. Families should note that with small grade-level cohorts, single-year swings partly reflect which students happened to be in the room.
