Summary

Glenwood Elementary School is a PK–8 neighborhood school with 281 students at 2860 Glenwood Ave in Toledo, Ohio, part of Toledo City School District. It serves prekindergarten through eighth grade, so families can see results across many ages and subjects. The district ranks 662nd of 773 Ohio districts (14th percentile, 1 star), while the school ranked 1,456th of 1,560 Ohio schools in 2025–2026 (7th percentile, 0 stars). Its average proficiency across 14 reported tests was about 21%, versus about 29% in the district and about 59% in the state.

Attendance is the clearest bright spot. Chronic absenteeism fell from 65.7% in 2021–2022 to 39.0% in 2025–2026, a 26.7-point drop. For the first time in the record, the school’s rate is slightly better than the district’s 39.8%. Among ten nearby schools, 39.0% is the second lowest, behind only Old West End Academy Elementary School at 14.5%, and well ahead of Rosa Parks Elementary School at 57.3%, Leverette Elementary School at 55.1%, Sherman Elementary School at 53.7%, and Robinson Elementary School at 52.2%. Class sizes also compare well: the school’s 14.0-to-1 student–teacher ratio is the third lowest among those eleven schools and much lower than the 23.0–23.6 ratios at Whittier Elementary School, Leverette Elementary School, and Rosa Parks Elementary School.

Academically, English language arts is stronger than math. In 2025–2026, ELA proficiency topped math at every tested grade, and the school averaged about 27% proficient in ELA versus about 13% in math. Fifth-grade ELA has been a reliable bright spot, reaching 43.3% in 2025–2026—second only to Old West End Academy Elementary School among nearby schools—and eighth-grade science (26.9%) was second of eight comparable schools. Math remains the big concern, especially grade 4 (9.5% in 2025–2026) and grade 7 (4.0%). Nearby Old West End Academy Elementary School, with similar enrollment and grade span, shows much stronger results and spent $12,543 per pupil in 2018–2019 versus the school’s $9,871. The key question is whether the school’s attendance gains can translate into steadier math and middle-grade achievement.
