Summary

Miles School is a PK–8 school in Cleveland, Ohio, serving 248 students as part of the Cleveland Municipal district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 1,522nd of 1,560 Ohio schools — the 2nd percentile, with 0 stars — and it has earned 0 stars every year in the available history, never rising above the 9th percentile. The district itself is ranked 689th of 773 statewide (11th percentile, 1 star), so Miles is already starting from a low-performing local context, yet it sits below most of its same-district neighbors: Warner Girls Leadership Academy (15th percentile), Nathan Hale School (12th) and Miles Park School (9th). It is only slightly above Andrew J Rickoff (6th) and Charles Dickens School and Robert H Jamison School (both 1st). The nearby charter SMART Academy ranks 32nd percentile with 2 stars.

Academically, Miles is far below both its district and the state. Across 14 reported proficiency tests in 2025–2026, its simple average is about 15.7%, compared with about 30.7% for the district and about 60.1% statewide. There are a few narrow bright spots: eighth-grade science is 38.9%, above the district's 28.3% and second among same-district neighbors only to Warner's 39.1%; eighth-grade math is 26.3%, above every nearby same-district school; and fifth-grade ELA is 32%. Even these remain below state averages (61.2%, 52% and 70.4%). Elsewhere, results are very low — fourth-grade math and ELA are both 7.7%, fifth-grade math is 4%, and sixth-grade ELA is 8% — well behind neighbors such as Nathan Hale and Miles Park.

Chronic absenteeism is the clearest warning sign. It rose from 35.8% in 2022–2023 to 60.4% in 2025–2026, now above the district's 54.3% and higher than most nearby schools; only Andrew J Rickoff is higher, at 65.5%. Resources alone do not appear to explain the gap: Miles spent $12,630 per student in 2018–2019, more than most nearby schools, and its student-teacher ratio was 16.5 in 2024–2025, similar to neighbors. Note that free/reduced-lunch data are missing for Miles and many nearby schools, and spending figures are several years old, so comparisons here are directional rather than definitive.
