Summary

David Hill Community Learning Center is a PK–5 elementary school in Akron, OH, serving 349 students in the Akron City School District. It ranks 1348th of 1560 Ohio elementary schools for 2025–2026 (14th percentile, 1 star), while the Akron City district ranks 643rd of 773. Rank has stayed mostly in the 10th–22nd percentile over the past decade, including a 0-star year in 2021–2022, with recent slight uptick. Nearby same-district schools rank higher: Voris Community Learning Center at the 40th percentile (2 stars), Hatton Community Learning Center at the 29th, and Leggett Community Learning Center at the 21st. McEbright Community Learning Center (16th) and Mason Community Learning Center (13th) are closer to David Hill, while Glover Community Learning Center is lower at the 8th percentile.

Chronic absenteeism has improved from 55.9% in 2022–2023 to 45.9% in 2025–2026, but it remains above the district rate of 40.9% and is the highest among same-district neighbors: Hatton 34.9%, Voris 24.6%, Mason 42.5%, Leggett 36.1%, Glover 40.7%, and McEbright 38.8%. Nearby charter/other-district schools have higher absenteeism—Case Preparatory Academy 76.2%, Middlebury Academy 70.3%, Main Preparatory Academy 64.5%, and Akron Preparatory School 63.1%. Academically, David Hill’s bright spot is 3rd-grade English language arts at 51.4%, above the district’s 47.0%. However, 5th-grade science is 18.4% (district 38.9%, state 62.7%) and the lowest among nearby same-district schools. Other weak spots include 4th-grade ELA at 30.2%, 5th-grade math at 26.3%, and 4th-grade math at 39.6%.

Subgroup results vary: African American students ranked at the 34th percentile (2 stars) in 2025–2026, above overall 14th percentile. Special education students dropped to the 4th percentile with 0 stars in 2024–2025, down from the 38th percentile with 2 stars in 2022–2023. Female students ranked at the 9th percentile (0 stars), lower than male students at the 15th (1 star). Staffing is favorable: the student–teacher ratio was 13.1 in 2024–2025, better than Hatton (15.5), Glover (14.4), McEbright (14.4), and nearby charters. Historical per-student spending was $10,633 in 2018–2019. Overall, priorities are reducing absenteeism, addressing science and 4th-grade ELA gaps, and investigating the special education decline.
