Summary:
The 44092 zip code area is home to two schools - Wickliffe Lower School, an elementary school, and Wickliffe Upper School, a high school. Both schools are part of the Wickliffe City School District, which is ranked 512 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Wickliffe Upper School stands out with an impressive 99.1% 4-year graduation rate for the 2024-2025 school year and relatively strong performance on certain state assessments, including 71.7% proficiency in 8th grade science, 68.1% proficiency in American Government, and 80.4% proficiency in American History. In contrast, both schools struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates of 27.6% and below-average proficiency on Ohio State Tests, particularly in mathematics.
The schools in this area serve a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (over 33% at both schools). Despite the relatively high spending per student (over $12,500 at each school), the academic performance does not seem to be commensurate with the level of funding, and the student-teacher ratios are on the higher side, which could be impacting the ability of teachers to provide individualized attention and support to students.
