Summary

Case Community Learning Center is a K–5 elementary school on Garman Road in Akron, Ohio, serving 371 students as part of the Akron City School District's Community Learning Centers network. In 2025-26 it ranked 1,085th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools — 30th percentile, 2 stars — well above its district, which sits at 643rd of 773 (17th percentile, 1 star). That makes Case the strongest-performing Akron City elementary in this comparison group, though King Community Learning Center (44th percentile) ranks higher about 1.4 miles away.

The school's story is one of steady improvement that has recently plateaued. Case climbed from the 16th percentile in 2017-18 to a peak of 38th in 2023-24, then softened to 30th. Attendance is a genuine bright spot: chronic absenteeism is 29.8%, down 11.8 points in four years, better than the district's 40.9% and better than six of seven neighboring Akron Community Learning Centers — only King and Judith A Resnik Community Learning Center run lower rates. Classes are comparatively small, at 12.9 students per teacher.

On 2025-26 state tests, Case beat the district in five of seven tested areas — including 5th-grade science by 17 points — but trailed the state in all seven. Its weakest spot by far is 3rd-grade math, about 29 points below the state, while 5th-grade results come closest to state averages; unusually, Case's older students outperform its younger ones. Special education results remain its lowest-performing subgroup (1–2 stars) and its most volatile. Higher-performing options nearby show what is possible in this area: Herberich Primary Elementary School (Copley-Fairlawn City) ranks in the 91st percentile, and Richardson Elementary School (Cuyahoga Falls City School District) reaches the 64th percentile with a similarly high-poverty student profile, spending roughly what Case spends.
