Original Research by School Decision on Campus International School
Campus International School is a public elementary and middle school in Cleveland serving kindergarten through eighth grade, with a student body distributed evenly across those grades. The school sits in a mid-sized enrollment band for its grade span and draws from the Cleveland neighborhood near the intersection of Payne Avenue and East 22nd Street. The immediate area is mixed-use urban, with commercial corridors, residential blocks, and institutional anchors including the Cleveland Museum of Natural History several blocks south.
The school's most recent state test results, from the 2024-25 school year, show proficiency rates in the range of mid-to-upper-50s in math and science, with English language arts performing somewhat stronger in the mid-60s. All three subjects show near-universal test participation, well above 99 percent. The English results reflect relative strength in reading and comprehension, while math and science proficiency sit at rates below where the state typically aims for full readiness. When positioned against other districts in Cuyahoga County, Campus International's overall proficiency index falls below the county midpoint, a straightforward indicator that the school is working with a population facing academic headwinds. Older data from 2016-17 shows a high-performing result in fourth-grade social studies, suggesting the school has capacity for strong outcomes in particular grades or subject areas.
The enrollment is diverse by race and ethnicity. The largest share of students are Black, with substantial representation from white and Asian students as well, plus smaller numbers of Hispanic and multiracial students. Exact free-or-reduced-price-lunch counts and special-education or English-learner tallies are not reported in the available data, so a parent may want to look into those details directly with the school if they are relevant to a family's situation. The school operates as a traditional public school within the Cleveland Metropolitan School District, not as a charter, magnet, or specialized program.
One important context: the district itself is undergoing significant restructuring. In December 2025, the Cleveland school board approved a consolidation plan that by the 2026-27 school year will reduce the district from 88 schools to 59, closing 18 buildings and merging 39 schools. Nearly seven thousand students will be reassigned. Campus International's specific status within this plan is not yet clear from the data at hand, so a parent considering this school would be prudent to ask the district directly whether Campus International is slated to merge, close, or remain as currently operated. The district also passed a new operating levy and bond extension in November 2024 that increases property taxes, and it has implemented a cellphone-free policy and new online grade book system (PowerSchool) for all families.
The housing market in the 44114 zip code where the school is located shows home values in the low-to-mid range for the county, with substantial rental availability. Days on market are moderate, and both active listings and new listings have ticked upward year-over-year, signaling a relatively open market. Rents and home prices are both below state and national benchmarks, making the area affordable relative to broader Ohio and U.S. patterns. This is urban-core real estate with the walkability and commercial density that comes with a central Cleveland location.
Campus International offers a standard K-8 pathway without reported dual-credit, advanced placement, or specialized career tracks, as such programs typically appear at the high-school level or in schools with explicit magnet or specialized focus. The school provides a traditional neighborhood school experience, neither selective admission nor alternative in structure.
