Summary

Harrison Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Lakewood, Ohio, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 270. The school is part of the Lakewood City School District, which is ranked 179 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Harrison Elementary School has struggled compared to the Lakewood City and Ohio state averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in Ohio State Tests were lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 5th grade Science, Harrison Elementary had a 60% proficiency rate, compared to 79.1% for Lakewood City and 63.4% for Ohio. The school's performance has been inconsistent over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 510 out of 1,588 Ohio elementary schools (2021-2022) to 1,340 out of 1,684 (2014-2015).

Harrison Elementary School has also struggled to support certain student subgroups, with its ranking for Asian students and African American students in the bottom 10-15% of Ohio elementary schools in recent years. However, the school has performed better with English Language Learner (ELL) students, ranking in the top 30% of Ohio elementary schools for ELL students in 2020-2021. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.6% in 2023-2024 to 26.8% in 2024-2025, which is notably higher than the district and state averages. These factors, along with the school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, may be contributing to its academic challenges.
