Summary

Cleveland School of Science & Medicine is a public high school serving 379 students in grades 9-12, located in Cleveland, Ohio, which is part of the Cleveland Municipal school district.

The school has consistently ranked in the top 25% of Ohio high schools over the past decade, with a peak ranking of 45th out of 800 schools in 2017-2018. It has maintained a 4- or 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating strong academic performance. The school excels in performance for specific student subgroups, particularly African American and White students, who have ranked in the top 5% and top 4%, respectively, in Ohio. However, the school's performance for Gifted and Talented students is relatively low, ranking in the bottom 20% of Ohio high schools. Cleveland School of Science & Medicine has maintained high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 74.4% to 98.9% over the past few years, and its students consistently outperform the Cleveland Municipal and Ohio state averages on end-of-course state tests, particularly in subjects like American Government, American History, and Algebra I.

Compared to nearby public high schools, such as Cleveland Early College High, Cleveland School of Architecture & Design, and Cleveland School of the Arts High School, Cleveland School of Science & Medicine generally outperforms them in terms of statewide rankings, test scores, and graduation rates. Despite serving a student population with a high percentage of low socioeconomic status students, the school has been able to maintain strong academic performance, ranking in the top 5% of Ohio high schools for this subgroup. However, the high chronic absenteeism rates at Cleveland School of Science & Medicine, as well as at other nearby schools, suggest a potential area of concern that may be impacting student learning and achievement.
