Summary

Sayler Park School is a small elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Cincinnati Public Schools district. With 322 students, the school has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Ohio elementary schools, earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger in recent years.

Sayler Park School faces significant challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 43.5% to 46.0% in recent years, well above district and state averages. The school also generally performs below the district and state on Ohio state tests across subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 5th grade science proficiency was 50% compared to 63.4% statewide, and its 8th grade math proficiency was 54.5% compared to 47.6% districtwide. Interestingly, the school's performance varies by student subgroup, with female and low-socioeconomic status students outperforming their male and white student counterparts, respectively.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Cincinnati Public Schools district, such as Covedale School and Cheviot School, Sayler Park School generally underperforms. However, the school's relatively strong performance among certain student subgroups suggests that there may be opportunities to learn from these successes and develop targeted interventions to improve outcomes for all students.
