Summary

Columbus Bilingual West is a K–6 elementary school at 680 Harrisburg Pike on Columbus's west side that serves just 64 students and operates as its own standalone district rather than as part of Columbus City Schools District.

Academically, the school sits at the very bottom of Ohio's rankings: 1543rd of 1560 schools (1st percentile, 0 stars) for 2025–2026, while its own Columbus Bilingual West district ranks 771st of 773. Reported proficiency on the Ohio State Tests for 2025–2026 was 21.4% in 5th-grade science, 5.9% in 4th-grade math, 7.1% in 5th-grade math, 20% in 3rd-grade ELA, 0% in 4th-grade ELA, and 21.4% in 5th-grade ELA — against state rates of 59–70% on every one of those measures. Chronic absenteeism is 66.6%, meaning roughly two-thirds of students miss enough school to be classified chronically absent; that is 12.8 points above the Columbus City district rate of 53.8%. Measured as school effectiveness for the groups it serves, low-income students rank 1442nd of 1467 statewide and male students 1410th of 1467.

Class size is not the problem here. At 16 students per teacher the school has the third-lowest ratio among eleven nearby schools, yet among the lowest outcomes — while Educational Academy for Boys & Girls, with the largest classes at 22.7 students per teacher, posts the best results in the group. The two closest schools, West Mound Elementary School (0.47 mi) and Burroughs Elementary School (0.49 mi), are both in the bottom band, and Highland Elementary School has an even higher absentee rate at 70.7%. The encouraging note: Educational Academy for Boys & Girls moved from the 18th to the 52nd percentile in two years while keeping absenteeism at 20.6%. Note that no prior-year test or rank data exists for Columbus Bilingual West, so no trend can be established.
