Summary

Rees E. Price Academy is an elementary school in Cincinnati, Ohio, serving 470 students in grades PK-7. The school is part of the Cincinnati Public Schools district, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Rees E. Price Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom 15% of Ohio elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of that time period. The school faces significant challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 43.5% to 51.3% in recent years, and consistently low academic performance, with proficiency rates well below state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 10.6% to 43.8% in math and 12.1% to 33.9% in English Language Arts, compared to state averages of 51.9% to 69.1% in math and 54.5% to 67.7% in ELA.

Nearby schools in the Cincinnati Public Schools district, such as Covedale School, Leap Academy at North Fairmount, and Carson School, generally perform better than Rees E. Price Academy on academic measures, but still struggle compared to state averages, indicating broader challenges within the district. Addressing the extremely high chronic absenteeism rates at Rees E. Price Academy could be a key lever for improving student outcomes, as this factor likely contributes significantly to the school's poor academic performance.
