Summary

Oliver Hazard Perry Elementary School is a PK–8 neighborhood school at 18400 Schenely Ave in Cleveland, enrolling 281 students in the Cleveland Municipal district. It ranks 1,462 of 1,560 Ohio schools (6th percentile, 0 stars) in 2025–2026, and its average proficiency across reported grade-level tests is about 20%, compared with about 31% in Cleveland Municipal and about 60% statewide. In plain terms, the school is below an already low-performing district and has spent most of the past decade in the bottom tail; its best year in the decade shown was still only the 22nd percentile in 2016–2017.

Subject results show a clear pattern: reading is stronger than math in every grade, but the upper grades are the biggest concern. Grades 3–5 average about 34.3% in English language arts and about 19.7% in math, while grades 6–8 average about 17.2% in ELA and about 9.6% in math. Sixth-grade math is 0% and eighth-grade math is 3.8%—extreme even locally, though small grade sizes mean one or two students can swing these numbers. Nearby, Memorial School, 1.69 miles away in the same district, posts roughly 28% composite proficiency and 36.7% in eighth-grade math; Chardon Hills Elementary School, 2.03 miles away in Euclid City, reaches about 61% composite, above the Ohio average, with chronic absenteeism of 15.5% versus the school's 53.2%.

Attendance is another major issue: the school's chronic absenteeism has stayed near 49–55% for five years and is now only 1.1 points better than the district's rate, while some nearby schools do much better. Pinnacle Academy (24.8%) and Chardon Hills Elementary School (15.5%) show that lower absenteeism is possible in the area. The school also spends near the top of the local range—$13,197 per student in 2018–2019—and has a 20:1 student–teacher ratio, so resources alone do not explain the results. The encouraging signs are small but real: some student groups have improved over the past two years, and early-grade reading and math scores have risen. For parents, the key questions are whether those early gains continue into grades 6–8 and whether the school can reduce absenteeism and strengthen middle-grades math.
