OHIO — Ohio released its annual school report cards for 2022-23 Thursday, which evaluates schools under a variety of categories: achievement, progress, gap closing, early literacy, graduation and readiness for college, career, workforce and military readiness. 

Starting last year, the state went by a different ranking system. Before then, it ranked schools on a letter-grade system, A-F. Now, it's a five-star rating system that includes the calculations from the categories above. 

For each category, schools can get up to five stars, ranking in increments of half-star ratings, according to the Ohio Department of Education's website. 

Using the ODE's performance ratings, here are the districts that got a one-star rating, and those that got five stars. ODE said those that got three or more stars achieved state standards.

Among the one-star schools, the East Cleveland City School District had the lowest performance index score with 45.3. The maximum performance index score is 108.8.
