Summary

Warrensville Heights Elementary School is a large public school in Cleveland, OH, serving 673 students in grades 1–5 as the main tested elementary in the Warrensville Heights City district, with the PK–K Warrensville Heights Early Learning Center just 0.13 miles away. The district ranks 655 of 773 (15th percentile, 1 star), and the school ranks 1,224 of 1,560 in 2025–2026 (22nd percentile, 1 star). Its statewide percentile has stayed in the bottom quartile for five years, moving from 26th in 2021–2022 to 22nd in 2025–2026. At 673 students, it is larger than most nearby elementary and charter schools, which enroll 130–467.

The school scored below the state in every tested subject and grade in 2025–2026. Its strongest relative result was 3rd-grade ELA (55.7% proficient vs. 63.4% statewide), and its weakest was 5th-grade science (28.4% vs. 62.7%). Fifth grade is the clearest pressure point, with math at 32.1% and ELA at 45.9%. Locally, it outperformed Adlai Stevenson School and Green Inspiration Academy in nearly every comparable subject, but trailed Fernway Elementary School, STEAM Academy of Warrensville Heights, Lomond Elementary School, Mercer Elementary School, and Ohio College Preparatory School, as well as the Shaker Heights City and Beachwood City districts nearby.

Attendance is a relative bright spot: chronic absenteeism fell from 29.7% to 24.4% over five years and has been below the district rate each year, though it remains higher than Fernway (7.7%) and Mercer (11.8%). Ohio College Prep's very high proficiency comes with 54.9% chronic absenteeism and only 179 students across K–8. The school ranks in the top third of Ohio schools for its African American students (63rd percentile, 3 stars) but just 11th percentile for special education students, a persistent weakness. Student–teacher ratio (15.1) and per-student spending ($12,386) are mid-pack locally, so resources alone do not explain the results.
