Summary:
There is only one middle school located in the 44314 zip code - Innes Community Learning Center, which serves grades 6-8 and is part of the Akron City School District. This school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Ohio middle schools over the past few years and faces significant challenges in providing a quality education to its 643 students.
Innes Community Learning Center has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 43.5% and student performance on state tests is significantly below state and district averages across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in 8th grade science, the school had 24.7% proficiency compared to 30.5% for Akron City and 63% for the state. Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.6 to 1 and spending per student of $10,491, the school is not translating these resources into improved student outcomes.
The data suggests that Innes Community Learning Center is a struggling school that requires targeted interventions and support to address the challenges it faces. Further investigation into the root causes of the school's poor performance and the implementation of effective strategies to improve student outcomes would be valuable next steps for the Akron City School District.
