Summary

Raymer Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Toledo, Ohio, with 381 students enrolled. The school is part of the Toledo City School District, which is ranked 658 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Raymer Elementary faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, well below average performance on Ohio state tests across all grade levels and subjects, and a 0-1 star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very poor performance compared to other schools in the state. For example, in 2024-2025, only 12.8% of 5th graders were proficient or better in Science, compared to 32.9% for Toledo City and 63.4% statewide. The school's struggles appear to be part of a broader pattern across the Toledo City district, as nearby schools like East Broadway, Garfield, and Navarre Elementary also perform poorly on state tests and have high chronic absenteeism rates.

Despite spending around $10,500 per student, which is on par with the spending at other Toledo City schools, and having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.8-16.9, Raymer Elementary's ranking and performance on state tests has remained consistently poor over the past 10 years, with little to no improvement. This points to deep-seated issues that the school and district have struggled to address, indicating the need for comprehensive, systemic interventions to support struggling schools and students.
