Summary:
Madison Avenue School of Arts is the sole elementary public charter school serving grades K-6 in Toledo, Ohio, with a total enrollment of 396 students. Despite its small size, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Ohio elementary schools over the past three years, indicating significant academic challenges.
According to the data, Madison Avenue School of Arts has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, the lowest possible, and its proficiency rates on state tests are significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 3rd-grade math proficiency was just 23.3%, compared to the state average of 64.4%. Additionally, the school has a high rate of chronic absenteeism, with 61.0% of students chronically absent in the 2024-2025 school year.
The data also suggests that Madison Avenue School of Arts may be under-resourced, with a student-teacher ratio of 26.4, which is higher than the state average, and per-student spending of $6,396 in 2018-2019, which is lower than the state average. These factors, combined with the school's persistent underperformance, indicate a clear need for targeted improvement efforts to provide a high-quality education for the students in this community.
