Summary

Toronto Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 358 students in grades K-5 in Toronto, Ohio. The school is part of the Toronto City School District, which is ranked 468 out of 828 districts in Ohio and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Toronto Elementary School faces several key challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 25.5% to 34.5% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's test scores are generally below the state averages, particularly in science and math, with only 50% of 5th graders proficient or better in science compared to the state average of 63.4%. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 60-62% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby schools, such as those in the Wellsville Local and Indian Creek Local districts, Toronto Elementary School generally performs worse on test scores and has higher chronic absenteeism rates. However, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with special education and low socioeconomic status students performing better than the overall student population. Despite the challenges, the school's fluctuating ranking and rating suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement with the right strategies and support.
