Summary

L. Hollingworth School for Talented and Gifted is a K–8 school serving 303 students in Toledo, Ohio (43605), and it stands out as one of the stronger-performing schools among its nearby Toledo neighbors.

The school's district-level rank is 580 of 773 (25th percentile, 1 star), but its school-level results show real improvement: in 2025–2026 it ranked 1,073 of 1,560 (31st percentile, 2 stars), the best year in the available history, up from the 8th percentile in 2015–2016. That is stronger than Toledo City (662 of 773) and much stronger than nearby Kenmore Preparatory Academy dba Toledo Preparatory Academy and Madison Avenue School of Arts. Attendance is a major bright spot: chronic absenteeism fell from 46.1% in 2022–2023 to 27.4% in 2025–2026, well below the Toledo City rate of 39.8%. Among nearby schools, only Escuela SMART Academy (11.9%) has a lower rate; Oakdale Elementary School, Raymer Elementary School, Marshall STEMM Academy, Garfield Elementary School, Navarre Elementary School, East Broadway Elementary School and Madison Avenue all range from 35.7% to 59.1%.

Test scores are mixed. The school is above the state in 8th grade science (69.2% vs. 61.2%) and 8th grade math (61.5% vs. 52.0%), and far ahead of nearby schools with comparable grades. Third grade ELA (62.9%) and 5th grade ELA (67.9%) are close to state averages and above most nearby schools. The clearest concerns are middle-grade math — 6th grade math 23.3% and 7th grade math 11.1%, versus state rates of 56.2% and 48.6% — and 5th grade science (32.1%), which trails Navarre, Escuela SMART, Oakdale and Raymer. Low-income students improved to the 37th percentile (2 stars) in 2025–2026, and girls (33rd percentile) outperform boys (26th). Per-student spending was $7,320 in 2018–2019, lower than most nearby schools, and the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 16.8.
