A Performance Index of 36.8, and three consecutive years below 40 — 36.8, 39.1, 38.9. verified report-card-2425-buildings.csv One star on the achievement component. The three-year span is not incidental: it is the span R.C. 3302.10 reads for a district and the span after which an ATSI building escalates to CSI.

Two-thirds of its students are chronically absent. 66.7% in 2024-25, against 25.9% at Sheridan and 2.5% at Barrington Road. verified A 64-point spread between two buildings in the same state, measured the same way in the same year.

That figure bears on whether achievement measures are measuring the school. A Performance Index is computed over tests that should have been taken, and Ohio’s plan states that a school earns zero points for every test not taken — so a building where two in three students are chronically absent is being scored partly on attendance through a measure that is nominally about learning. inference The corpus cannot separate the two effects and should not pretend the index is clean. open

It is on none of the three identification lists # ↑ Contents

Not CSI, not TSI, not ATSI. verified dispersion::identified, pinned by test A building at a third of the Performance Index scale with two in three students chronically absent is outside the federal accountability system entirely — while Sheridan, a four-star building, is inside it.

What this repository computed # ↑ Contents

Not what Ohio publishes. Figures derived here from committed fixtures, each one citing the test that reproduces it.

That is not obviously a defect, and the corpus cannot tell. CSI selects among Title I served schools, and neither the identification lists nor any fixture here carries a Title I service flag. So the absence had at least three readings — the building is not Title I served; it is served but was not in the bottom 5% of that population in the 2025 cycle; or it was identified in an earlier cycle and exited. The department republishes each list in place rather than archiving cycles, so the history that would settle the third does not exist here.

Two of the three readings are now much harder to hold # ↑ Contents

The building sits at rank 23 of the 3,151 buildings Ohio rated in 2024-25 — the bottom one per cent — and 18 of the 22 buildings below it are on a federal list. verified crates/dispersion, which is the first reader the building extract has had and pins every figure this node states

Sharper than the rank: Alfred Benesch, operated by the same district, scores the same 36.8, carries the same one star, and is CSI on the 2025 cycle by the direct route. verified “Served but outside the bottom 5%” would have to be true of a building in the bottom one per cent while false of its neighbor at the same published score, under the same superintendent, in the same year. It is not a reading the published rating can support, and this pair is one of six such pairs inside a single district — see Every Student Succeeds Act.

What survives is Title I service, and the earlier-cycle exit — which the list makes look rare, since it carries 100 schools that have not managed it in seven years. Which of the two is not established. open

What can be said without either: a reader who treats the CSI list as “the failing schools” will not find this building on it. Cleveland has fifteen CSI buildings and this is not one of them.

The intervention connection is real and not yet traceable. Cleveland Municipal is recorded as having been subject to state academic distress intervention “for part of the period”, with dates not established. verified Whether this building was open, and how it performed, during the commission’s tenure is exactly the question the accountability expansion exists to answer and cannot yet, because the corpus holds no commission timeline. open

It serves preschool through eighth grade. The report card’s own building record for 2024-25 gives the span as “P,K-8”, and the federal directory gives “PK - 8” on its 2025-26 entry. verified Ohio School Report Cards building record, 2024-25; NCES Common Core of Data school directory, 2025-26 So the achievement figures above cover the tested grades three through eight of a building whose youngest pupils are not tested at all. inference
