Summary

Toler Elementary is a K–5 school serving 235 students in San Diego, in the San Diego Unified area. Its overall test results are above state averages in English language arts (ELA) and math, but its grade-level results tell a less even story. The clearest academic concern is fifth grade: proficiency is 35% in ELA and 26% in math, placing Toler eighth among nine nearby K–5 schools in both subjects.

Toler’s strongest comparison is math against state and district results: 55% of students are proficient, 16 percentage points above the state and 9 above the district. ELA is also above both, at 55%—6 points above the state and 1 above the district. However, nearby schools provide a tougher benchmark: Toler ranks sixth of nine in ELA, math and science, and its science proficiency of 35% is well below the nearby-school average of 48%. Its 22% chronic absenteeism rate is the highest among nearby schools with current figures, and is 5 points above the district and 4 above the state, despite a substantial improvement from earlier years.

Results have shifted over time: science proficiency fell from 68% in 2022–2023 to 35% in 2025–2026, while ELA and math have been more stable. SchoolDigger ranks Toler 1,895th of 5,804 California schools, at the 67th percentile with 3 stars; its percentile declined from 79 to 71 to 67 over the last three years. Toler has the lowest reported student–teacher ratio among nearby schools, 19.5, and the highest reported per-student spending, $36,433. Its free/reduced lunch eligible share was 54% in 2024–2025; California is marked as a statewide-free-meals state in the data, so read that figure in context. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure for how well Toler serves female students is notably higher than its overall standing, at the 86th percentile; its measure for how well it serves White students is at the 23rd percentile, down from the 84th in 2023–2024.
