Summary

Crouse Community Learning Center is a PK–5 elementary school with 429 students in the Akron City School District in Akron, Ohio, and it is the largest of the nearby same-district elementary schools in this comparison.

In 2025–2026, Crouse ranked 1,535 of 1,560 Ohio schools statewide, at the 2nd percentile with 0 stars, while Akron City ranked 643 of 773 districts (17th percentile, 1 star). Proficiency was low across every reported subject and grade: Grade 5 science 7.7%, Grade 5 math 7.7%, Grade 3 math 14.5%, Grade 4 math 16.7%, Grade 3 ELA 25%, Grade 4 ELA 13.8%, and Grade 5 ELA 33.3%. A simple average of those seven rates is roughly 17.0%, compared with about 42.7% for the district and about 63.8% for Ohio. Among nearby same-district elementary schools, Crouse’s average is the lowest; King Community Learning Center is much higher, with 72.3% in Grade 3 math and 75.4% in Grade 3 ELA. Crouse’s bottom-decile rank has persisted from 2015–2016 through 2025–2026.

Chronic absenteeism is another major concern: Crouse’s rate was 47.3% in 2025–2026, above the district’s 40.9% and the highest among nearby same-district schools; King Community Learning Center was 13.6%, and Helen Arnold Community Learning Center was 35.6%. Crouse improved from 61.0% in 2021–2022 to 39.9% in 2024–2025, but rose again in 2025–2026. Subgroup effectiveness is very low statewide for male students (0th percentile), special education students (0th percentile), low-income students (2nd percentile), and female students (3rd percentile). Crouse has 429 students and a student–teacher ratio of 13.6, in the middle of nearby same-district schools, and per-student spending was $10,584 in 2018–2019, so resources alone do not clearly explain the gap. Most 2025–2026 results declined from the prior year; Grade 5 ELA improved to 33.3% but remained far below district and state averages.
