Summary

Wade Park is an alternative public school in the Cleveland Municipal District, serving grades PK-9 with 401 students. The school is ranked 675 out of 828 schools in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant academic challenges.

Wade Park's test scores are significantly lower than the Cleveland Municipal district and the state of Ohio across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 5th grade Math, only 0% of Wade Park students were proficient compared to 24.5% in the district and 56.7% statewide. The performance gap is especially wide in higher grade levels, with 8th grade Math proficiency at just 11.6% compared to 24.7% in the district and 47.6% statewide. Additionally, Wade Park has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 46% to 59.5% over the past few years.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Cleveland Municipal district, such as Cleveland Metro Remote School K-12, Natividad Pagan International Newcomers Academy, and Glenville High School, also have very low test scores and high chronic absenteeism rates, similar to Wade Park. This suggests that the challenges faced by Wade Park are not unique and are likely systemic issues within the Cleveland Municipal district. The data indicates that Wade Park and the surrounding schools require comprehensive interventions and support to address the underlying factors contributing to the low academic performance.
