Summary

Horizon Science Academy Toledo is a K–12 charter school at 2600 W Sylvania Ave in West Toledo that serves 515 students across kindergarten through 12th grade and operates as its own single-school district.

The school's standout strength is completion: its graduation rate has been 100% in each of the last three reported years (2023–24, 2024–25, and 2025–26), up from 84.4% in 2022–23. Chronic absenteeism has also improved, falling from 42.2% in 2022–23 to 32.5% in 2025–26. That puts Horizon in the middle of nearby schools — better than Reynolds Elementary School in the Toledo City district (56.7%) and Summit Academy - Toledo (53.6%), but higher than suburban Swanton Elementary School (9.2%) and Ohio Virtual Academy (10.6%).

Academics are more uneven. In 2025–26 Horizon beat the state in only 4 of 20 tested subjects, including 8th grade math (86.1% vs. 52.0% state) and 8th grade science (68.3% vs. 61.2%) — the highest in the comparison group — plus American Government at 80.6%. Elementary grades trail the state in every math and ELA test, and Geometry has stayed below 30% for four straight years (12.9% in 2025–26 vs. 43.3% state), far behind Wildwood Environmental Academy (46.7%) and Northwest Ohio Classical Academy (47.6%). There is real momentum in Algebra I, which climbed from 18.4% in 2022–23 to 53.6% in 2025–26, and the current 8th grade class has improved steadily in both math and ELA over three years. Classes are relatively small (11.4:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–25), and per-pupil spending is $7,609 (2018–19).

Open Quote This school has a group of teachers who day in and day out serve the students, families, and the community. Every year, my son's teachers have reached out to me, to let me know what's going on in the classroom, to invite me to sit-in on a class. I also love all the activities that my son has can involve himself in from after school clubs (he really loves Art Club), robotics, music, and art. I particularly loved last years Talent Show! What an awesome group of students and staff. My son also competed in the SumoBots Robotics competition this year and made a Lego Robot that they built and programmed. Thank you for creating such a positive environment for my son to grow-up in. Go Jaguars! Close Quote
