Below is a letter sent earlier today regarding the State Report Card and 2025 Rocky River Quality Profile. Thank you for your continued partnership and support!!
“Dear Rocky River Families,
This morning, the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce released this year’s State Report Card, and I am proud to share that Rocky River City Schools received a 5-Star Rating—the highest rating issued by the state. You can view our report card here: State Report Card
There are several specific highlights we should all be proud of, including:
- The highest Performance Index in district history at 111.1. This is the third highest in the state of Ohio
- Record scores in ELA 5, ELA 6, Math 6, and ELA 8
- A 99.3% graduation rate at Rocky River High School, earning a 5-Star Rating
These results are a reflection of the collective efforts of our students, teachers, principals, and support staff who work tirelessly to meet high expectations and demonstrate growth. Our families are vital partners in this work, setting high standards and supporting their children along the way. Together, we have built an environment that encourages continuous improvement, and I am incredibly proud of every student, teacher, and staff member in River.
At the same time, we recognize that the State Report Card represents only one measure of our success. For example, 80% of our high school students are involved in athletics or activities. Our students thrive in the arts, gain meaningful career experiences, serve as peer mentors, and pursue passions that extend well beyond the classroom. These experiences help ignite imagination, foster leadership, and teach lifelong lessons. Meanwhile, our teachers and staff remain deeply engaged in professional learning to ensure instruction is meaningful and connected to every student.
To share a more complete picture of our district, I am excited to release the 2025 Rocky River Quality Profile, which highlights the accomplishments and opportunities that matter most to our staff, students, families, and community. You can explore the report here: 2025 Quality Profile.
Congratulations to our students, staff, families, and community for achieving outstanding results and continuing to showcase what makes Rocky River such a special place. In the Rocky River City School District, we provide a CARING environment and EXCEPTIONAL opportunities, resulting in SUCCESSFUL students who are globally COMPETITIVE. This mission guides everything we do—and today’s results are a clear reflection of that commitment.
Well done, everyone. Go Pirates!
With Pirate Pride,
Adham”
