Yesterday, the Ohio Department of Education (ODE) released its 2021-2022 Ohio State Report Cards. The new state report card now includes a “5-Star Rating” in five component areas instead of letter grades or rankings. While an overall star rating for each district will not be issued until next year, we are excited to share that based on our results in the five component areas the Fairview Park City School District would have achieved an overall 4-star rating, exceeding state standards.

The District received 5-star ratings, significantly exceeding state standards, in two components, Progress (the growth all students make based on their past performance) and Gap Closing (how well schools are doing in closing the achievement gap between students based on income, race, ethnicity, or disability).

In the other three components, the District received a 4-star rating. Achievement (how well students performed on state tests), Graduation Rate, and K-3 Literacy.

These report card results are due to the incredibly hard work and perseverance of our students, teachers, administrators, staff, and families. As we celebrate these results, we will continue to build on our strengths while addressing opportunities for continuous improvement.

We also want to remind everyone that these results are just one benchmark that we use to measure the quality and rigor that our students deserve and our community expects.

Thank you for your continued support and commitment to the Fairview Park City Schools.

Sincerely,

Keith Ahearn

Superintendent
