Summary

Toussaint L'Ouverture Elementary is a public elementary school in Miami, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 327 students. The school is part of the Miami-Dade school district, which is ranked 22 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Toussaint L'Ouverture Elementary faces significant challenges, with consistently high chronic absenteeism rates and academic performance that is generally below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 34%, compared to 56% for the district and 55% for the state. The school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 71.87% to 89.05% over the past few years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Morningside K-8 Academy, a public magnet school, Toussaint L'Ouverture Elementary consistently performs worse on academic measures, with lower test scores and a higher chronic absenteeism rate. This suggests that the magnet school model may be more effective in improving student outcomes. Additionally, despite the relatively high per-student spending at Toussaint L'Ouverture Elementary, the school's academic performance remains below the district and state averages, indicating that simply increasing funding may not be enough to improve student outcomes, and other factors such as instructional quality, school leadership, and family engagement may play a more significant role.
