Summary

Adlai Stevenson School is a PK–8 school at 18300 Woda in Cleveland, OH, serving 295 students as part of the Cleveland Municipal district, in a neighborhood that borders Shaker Heights and Warrensville Heights.

Statewide, Stevenson has sat at the bottom of Ohio's school rankings for a decade: ten reported years, ten zero-star ratings, and never a percentile above 10. In 2025–2026 it ranked 1,494th of 1,560 schools, the 4th percentile. Test scores are low overall and weakest in math — roughly 14% average proficiency across grades 3–8, compared with about 28% for the district and 58% statewide. English language arts is closer to par at about 28–29%, versus roughly 34% for the district, and grades 5, 7, and 8 ELA actually matched or beat the district average, making the upper grades the school's academic bright spot. One caution: third-grade math showed 0% proficiency in 2025–2026 after 30.8% the year before, and with small grade-level groups, a single year's result can swing sharply.

The clearest success story is attendance. Chronic absenteeism dropped from 57.2% in 2021–2022 to 36.4% in 2025–2026 — more than 17 points better than the district and the lowest among its same-district PK–8 peers: Robert H Jamison School (39.0%), Charles Dickens School (46.9%), and Andrew J Rickoff (65.5%). Class sizes are comparatively small at 15.5 students per teacher, lower than nearby Shaker Heights schools such as Lomond Elementary School and Fernway Elementary School. Yet proficiency within about 1.2 miles is several times higher at those Shaker Heights schools, where per-student spending runs roughly $3,500–$6,200 more. Free/reduced-lunch figures are not reported for Stevenson, and spending data dates to 2018–2019.
