Summary

Schumacher Community Learning Center is a K–5 elementary school serving 348 students on Hartford Avenue in Akron, Ohio, part of the Akron City School District. Statewide, it ranked 1,306th of 1,560 Ohio schools in 2025–2026 (16th percentile, 1 star), while its district ranks 643rd of 773. The school has historically sat near the bottom of Ohio's rankings — 0 stars and 5th–8th percentile in the late 2010s — but has moved up to 1 star and the 10th–18th percentile range since 2020–2021.

Results vary sharply by grade. Fifth grade is a bright spot: 40% of fifth graders were proficient in science and 40% in math, both above district averages and among the strongest results in the nearby group — ahead of Pfeiffer Elementary School, Portage Path Community Learning Center, and Crouse Community Learning Center, though behind Case Community Learning Center. Fourth grade is the clearest weakness: 20.5% proficient in math and 22.7% in English language arts, far below the district averages of 44.2% and 43.1% and near the bottom of the local comparison group. Third grade is mixed, at 34% in math and 43.4% in ELA.

Chronic absenteeism has improved from 48.8% in 2021–2022 to 36.9% in 2025–2026 — now below the district's 40.9%, but still well above King Community Learning Center (13.6%) and Judith A Resnik Community Learning Center (23.0%). Overall, Schumacher sits in the lower-middle of nearby schools — behind King, Case, and Imagine Leadership Academy, roughly even with Leggett Community Learning Center, and ahead of Pfeiffer, Portage Path, Helen Arnold Community Learning Center, and Crouse. Students with disabilities are a significant equity gap, ranking in the 6th percentile (0 stars) versus the school's overall 16th percentile, and low-income students rank at the 18th percentile.
