Summary

Hannah Gibbons-Nottingham Elementary School is a small PK–8 school in Cleveland’s 44110 area, part of the Cleveland Municipal district, serving 222 students.

In 2025-26, it ranked in the 2nd percentile of Ohio schools (1,529th of 1,560) with 0 stars — its lowest showing in the ten years shown. It is also last among 11 nearby schools compared. The Cleveland Municipal district itself ranks 689th of 773 Ohio districts. Across reported tests, average proficiency is about 15%, versus about 31% for Cleveland Municipal and about 60% for Ohio. Math and science are the deepest weaknesses: grade 6 math 0%, grade 8 science 0%, and grade 5 science 5.3%. The brightest spot is upper-grade reading: grade 7 English language arts 47.6% and grade 8 30.0%, both above the district and the school’s best results against the state. Early reading is weaker — grade 3 ELA fell to 10%.

The clearest positive is attendance: chronic absenteeism dropped to 34.9% in 2025-26, down from 59.8% in 2021-22, better than Cleveland Municipal’s 54.3% and better than all four same-district PK–8 peers. That is a real improvement, but it has not yet translated into achievement. The student–teacher ratio rose to 17.0 in 2024-25, and per-student spending was $11,389 in 2018-19 — the lowest among its district peers. Special education students have been relatively better served, reaching the 24th percentile in 2023-24. Because the school is small, one-year swings can be volatile; look at multi-year trends. Nearby, Chardon Hills Elementary School shows what stronger results can look like: 15.5% chronic absenteeism and the peer group’s highest proficiency. For parents, the key questions are whether upper-grade reading gains can spread to earlier grades and whether better attendance will finally lift math, science, and early reading.
