Summary

Glover Community Learning Center is an elementary school in Akron, Ohio, serving students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Akron City School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Glover Community Learning Center has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Ohio elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years.

Glover Community Learning Center faces significant challenges, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 43.5% to 48.8% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the Akron City and Ohio state averages. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on Ohio state tests, is consistently below the Akron City and Ohio state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 34%, compared to 42.1% for Akron City and 63.4% for the state. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with some groups, such as African American students, performing better than the overall school, but still lagging behind the state average.

The challenges faced by Glover Community Learning Center are not unique, as the nearby schools in the Akron City School District, such as McEbright Community Learning Center, David Hill Community Learning Center, and Firestone Park Elementary School, also struggle with low academic performance and high chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that the issues may be systemic within the district, and addressing the underlying factors, such as socioeconomic status and district-wide support, could be key to improving outcomes for the students at Glover Community Learning Center and the surrounding schools.
