Summary

East Clark is an elementary school located in Cleveland, Ohio, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 182 students. The school is part of the Cleveland Municipal School District, which is ranked 675 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

East Clark has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Ohio elementary schools over the past several years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 1261 to 1599 out of around 1,600 schools. The school has received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years, with a 0-star rating in 2020-2021. East Clark's student performance on Ohio state tests is consistently well below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 7.1% of 8th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 25% for the Cleveland Municipal district and 54.4% statewide.

The nearby schools, such as Kenneth W Clement, Memorial School, and Euclid Park Elementary School, also struggle with low performance, high chronic absenteeism, and low rankings. However, these schools generally outperform East Clark on key metrics, suggesting that East Clark may face additional challenges. Despite East Clark's relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to the state average, the school's performance outcomes are still significantly lower than the state and district averages.
