Summary

Silver Lake Elementary School in Silver Lake, Ohio, is a K–5 school with about 210 students in the Cuyahoga Falls City School District, located near Akron and serving a mix of suburban families.

Academically, the school is a stable, top-quartile Ohio elementary: in 2025–2026 it ranked 388 of 1,560 elementary schools—the 75th percentile, 4 stars—well above its district’s 52nd percentile, 3 stars. It beat the state in all seven reported assessments and its district in five of seven. Fifth grade is the flagship: ELA 89.3, math 78.6, and science 78.6. The 4th-grade dip is best understood as a single weaker cohort moving through, not a grade-level program problem. Among nearby Cuyahoga Falls schools, Gordon Dewitt Elementary School is the closest peer: rank 366, 77th percentile, with similar chronic absenteeism. Compared with more affluent schools in the Stow-Munroe Falls City School District, Highland Elementary School and Fishcreek Elementary School rank higher, while Echo Hills Elementary School and Indian Trail Elementary School, serving similar poverty levels, rank around the 53rd percentile—about 22 points below it.

Attendance is a standout strength: chronic absenteeism is 12.2%, roughly half the district’s 23.1% and the lowest in its Cuyahoga Falls peer group, improving every reported year. The school also has the lowest free/reduced-lunch rate in that group, though it has risen from 43.15% to 49.05%, a trend to watch. The student–teacher ratio has also climbed, from 7.8 in 2022–2023 to 16.1 in 2024–2025. Bottom line: the school is a strong, consistent choice that outperforms its own district and holds its own against more affluent neighbors; the main things to monitor are rising poverty and staffing ratios.
