BUHRER

Buhrer is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Cleveland Municipal school district, located in Cleveland, OH with about 399 students offering grade levels from Pre-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 17 teachers, Buhrer has a student/teacher ratio of about 23:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Beyond its focus on bilingualism, Buhrer emphasizes a community-centered approach to education, aiming to support the diverse needs of its neighborhood families. The school environment is structured to provide rigorous academic instruction alongside character development, encouraging students to become critical thinkers and active participants in their community.
