Summary:
The 44312 zip code area in Ohio is home to three middle schools: Hyre Community Learning Center, Schrop Intermediate School, and Summit Academy Akron Middle School. These schools serve students in grades 5-8 and are located within the Akron City, Springfield Local, and Summit Academy Akron Middle School districts, respectively.
Among the three schools, Schrop Intermediate School stands out as the highest-performing, consistently outpacing the state and district averages in various academic subjects and grade levels. For instance, in the 2024-2025 school year, 67.8% of 5th graders at Schrop Intermediate School were proficient or better in Science, compared to 68.1% for the Springfield Local district and 63.4% statewide. In contrast, Summit Academy Akron Middle School appears to be the lowest-performing, with significantly lower test scores than the state averages, particularly in mathematics.
The data also reveals concerning trends, such as high chronic absenteeism rates, especially at Hyre Community Learning Center (43.5% in 2024-2025) and Summit Academy Akron Middle School (37.5% in 2024-2025), which may be contributing to the lower academic performance at these schools. Additionally, the spending per student and student-teacher ratios do not appear to be the primary drivers of the performance differences, suggesting that other factors, such as teaching quality, curriculum, and school leadership, may play a significant role in shaping the educational outcomes for students in the 44312 zip code area.
