Summary

E A Powell Elementary School is a public elementary school in North Baltimore, Ohio, serving 375 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the North Baltimore Local School District, which is ranked 394 out of 828 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While E A Powell Elementary School has higher spending per student ($12,292 in 2018-2019) and a decreasing student-teacher ratio, these factors have not translated into better academic outcomes. The school consistently struggles with higher chronic absenteeism rates (16.5% in 2024-2025 compared to the state average of 11.5%) and lower test scores across various grade levels and subject areas, such as a 3rd grade math proficiency rate of 53.7% compared to the state average of 64.4%. Additionally, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with White students and Special Education students ranking in the bottom quartile of Ohio elementary schools.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Liberty-Benton Elementary School, Arcadia Elementary School, and Van Buren Elementary School, generally outperform E A Powell Elementary School in terms of test scores, chronic absenteeism rates, and overall school rankings, despite serving similar student populations. The high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at E A Powell Elementary School (55.47% in 2023-2024) suggests that the school faces significant socioeconomic challenges, which may be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance.
