Summary

Toledo Blade Elementary School is a public elementary school in North Port, Florida, serving around 800 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the highly-ranked Sarasota School District, which is ranked 11th out of 67 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Toledo Blade Elementary has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating strong academic performance. The school consistently outperforms the Sarasota district and the state of Florida in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects, with impressive proficiency rates in 5th-grade science (71%) and 3rd-grade math (87%). However, the school has seen a higher rate of chronic absenteeism, reaching 31.4% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is an area of concern.

When compared to nearby schools in the Sarasota district, Toledo Blade Elementary consistently outperforms them in test scores, particularly in math and science. The school's strong test scores, dedicated staff, and commitment to student success are clear indicators of its excellence. However, the school's relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (59.38%) suggests that it serves a population with a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, which may present unique challenges that the school will need to address.
