Summary

Memorial School is a PK–8 school at 410 E 152nd St in Cleveland's 44110 neighborhood, serving 375 students as part of Cleveland Municipal, a district ranked 689th of 773 in Ohio. Memorial itself ranks 1383rd of 1560 statewide for 2025–2026 — about the 11th percentile with 1 star — a slight improvement from the previous year's 0 stars. Among six same-district nearby schools, Memorial sits third, ahead of East Clark, Oliver Hazard Perry Elementary School, and Hannah Gibbons-Nottingham Elementary School, but behind Euclid Park Elementary School and Kenneth W Clement. Nearby charter schools Apex Academy and Noble Academy-Cleveland rank higher overall with 2 stars.

Academically, the picture is mixed. Memorial's middle grades show real strengths: 5th-grade ELA at 57.1%, 8th-grade ELA at 36.7%, 6th-grade math at 28.1%, 8th-grade math at 36.7%, and 8th-grade science at 33.3% all beat the district average and most same-district peers. But early math is a clear weakness — 3rd-, 4th-, and 5th-grade math all sit near 11%, far below both district and state averages — and 3rd-grade ELA and 7th-grade ELA also trail the district. Math fell in every tested grade from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026 (8th-grade math dropped from 80.0% to 36.7%), while ELA and science improved. Importantly, every reported result remains below the state average, even the strongest ones.

Chronic absenteeism is 50.9%, better than the district's 54.3% and several neighbors, but far above Bella Academy of Excellence (28.9%) and Noble Academy (34.3%) — making attendance a key lever. The student–teacher ratio is 18.7, higher than Euclid Park, East Clark, and Hannah Gibbons but lower than Kenneth W Clement and Oliver Hazard Perry. Per-student spending was $13,368 in 2018–2019, high compared with nearby charters such as Noble Academy ($7,200) and Apex Academy ($10,274), though that figure is dated. By subgroup, the school ranks in the 26th percentile for African American students — well above its overall 11th percentile — while special education students rank in the 7th percentile with 0 stars, an area worth asking about.
