Summary

Harrison Elementary School is a PK–5 school serving 255 students in Lakewood, Ohio, part of the Lakewood City School District, which ranks 220 of 773 Ohio districts (72nd percentile, 4 stars). Harrison itself sits in the middle of Ohio elementary schools: 829 of 1,560 (47th percentile, 2 stars) in 2025-26, down from 695 of 1,558 (55th percentile, 3 stars) in 2024-25. Over the longer term it has climbed from the bottom quartile (27th–31st percentile from 2015-16 through 2018-19) to the 45th–55th percentile in most recent years, peaking at the 68th percentile in 2021-22.

Within Lakewood, Harrison trails its same-district peers: Grant Elementary School (92nd percentile, 5 stars), Roosevelt Elementary School (69th, 3 stars) and Emerson Elementary School (66th, 3 stars). Against Cleveland Municipal schools and nearby charters, though, Harrison is comparatively advantaged: Constellation Schools: Madison Community Elementary ranks at the 4th percentile (0 stars), Orchard Park Academy 17th, Louisa May Alcott Elementary School 24th, Riverside School 27th, Global Ambassadors Language Academy 28th, and Marion C Seltzer Elementary School 10th, each rated 1 star.

Test results are mixed. Harrison trailed the Lakewood City district in every reported subject and grade in 2025-26, but beat Ohio in several upper-grade areas: 5th-grade ELA 78.3% (7.9 points above the state), 5th-grade math 69.6% (+10.5), 4th-grade ELA 73.2% (+11.4) and 4th-grade math 70.7% (+3.4). The clearest gap is 5th-grade science at 39.1% proficient, versus 62.7% statewide and 72.3% in the district; 3rd-grade ELA and math both came in at 54.8%. These results come alongside a high economic-disadvantage proxy—66.67% free/reduced lunch in 2024-25, far above Grant (27.24%), Emerson (39.63%) and Roosevelt (47.64%). Attendance is a relative strength: chronic absenteeism was 11.9% in 2025-26 versus 21.8% district-wide, and the 14.1 student-teacher ratio is more favorable than those peers'. English Language Learner students have ranked above the school's overall standing in several recent years.
