Summary

Case Preparatory Academy is an elementary school in Akron, Ohio that serves 339 students in grades K-8. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Ohio elementary schools over the past 5 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Case Preparatory Academy faces significant challenges in providing a quality education to its students.

The school has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 64.2% to 88.1% over the past 5 years, which is significantly higher than the state average and nearby public schools. Students at Case Preparatory Academy also perform poorly on state assessments, with proficiency rates ranging from 0% to 47.8% across different grade levels and subjects, well below the state averages of 47.6% to 69.1%. The school struggles to effectively serve its student subgroups, ranking in the bottom 25% of Ohio elementary schools for female, male, African American, and low socioeconomic status students.

Comparing Case Preparatory Academy to nearby charter schools, such as Main Preparatory Academy and Middlebury Academy, as well as Akron City public elementary schools, highlights the need for Case Preparatory Academy to learn from and adopt best practices from higher-performing schools in the area. The school's declining performance over the past 5 years suggests that substantial improvements are needed to address these issues and provide a quality education for its students.
