PERFORMANCE ACADEMY EASTLAND

Performance Academy Eastland is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the Performance Academy Eastland school district, located in Columbus, OH with about 340 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 15 teachers, Performance Academy Eastland has a student/teacher ratio of about 22:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1.
