Summary:

ZIP code 44111 contains 14 schools serving roughly 4,998 students across elementary, middle, high school, and alternative settings, and it is dominated by Cleveland Municipal, which runs 9 of the 14 schools and enrolls about 3,791 students (76% of the area's total); the other five are charter or independent operators enrolling about 1,207 students.

Several schools stand out. Garfield Elementary School has the lowest chronic absenteeism in the ZIP at 29.5% (district: 54.3%), improved from the 28th to the 41st percentile, and beats the state in 3rd and 6th grade math and ELA plus Algebra I at 84.2%. Constellation Schools: Westpark Community Middle is the highest-ranked school here at the 50th percentile, above the state in 5th, 7th, and 8th grade math and ELA, with 42.1% absenteeism. Global Ambassadors Language Academy posts 8th grade ELA at 90% and science at 80%, and has the lowest student-teacher ratio, 9.6. Constellation Schools: Westpark Community Elementary has a striking 4th grade math result of 80.9%, though its rank fell to the 34th percentile.

The biggest concern is high school performance: all five high schools fall below both district and state averages in every End-of-Course subject, with Geometry averaging 11.3% proficient versus 43.3% statewide. Absenteeism divides the area sharply—high schools average about 71.4%, elementary schools about 40.9%—and John Marshall School of Business and Civic Leadership has both the highest absenteeism (83.5%) and the highest graduation rate (88.1%). The School of One ranks lowest at the 4th percentile with a 29.3 student-teacher ratio. Results also vary widely by grade within schools—Mary Church Terrell reaches 66.7% in 3rd grade math but only 4.0% in 7th grade ELA.
