Summary:
Zip code 44127 in Cleveland, Ohio contains exactly one school: Broadway Academy, an elementary school serving grades K–8 at 5004 Glazier Ave with 475 students. It is listed as its own district, Broadway Academy, so there are no other schools in this ZIP to compare it with; the useful yardsticks are Ohio state averages and the school's own recent history.
Broadway Academy has improved sharply. Its state rank climbed from the 17th percentile (1 star) in 2023-2024, to the 37th percentile (2 stars) in 2024-2025, to the 60th percentile (3 stars) in 2025-2026. Average proficiency across tested grades rose from 53.3% to 69.1% in a single year while the state average barely moved (59.2% to 60.1%), so the school now leads the state overall after trailing it the year before. Science is a standout: 97.8% proficient in grade 5 and 97.5% in grade 8, roughly 35 points above state. Seventh-grade math scored 100%, and grade 6 math reached 90%. Twelve of fourteen grade-and-subject measures improved year over year. Results are uneven, though: grade 5 math sits at 24.4%, about 35 points below state, while grade 7 math is at 100%. Math 8 and ELA 8 declined, and four of six ELA grades still trail the state — eighth-grade ELA, at 37.5%, is the lowest result in the data.
Two practical notes for families. Chronic absenteeism is 58.4% for 2025-2026, meaning more than half of students missed enough school to be flagged; no state comparison is provided, so treat this as a question to ask the school. The student–teacher ratio is 12.4:1, roughly 38 teachers for 475 students, which is favorable. Per-student spending is listed at $9,261, but that figure dates to 2018-2019, and free/reduced-lunch data is not reported, so current funding and poverty context cannot be confirmed from this data.
