Summary

Silver Creek Elementary School is a K–6 school at 2010 Northover Rd in Toledo, part of the Washington Local district, serving 679 students in a high-poverty setting where about 73% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

On the state’s 2025–26 measure, Silver Creek Elementary School ranks 1,139th of 1,560 Ohio elementary schools (27th percentile, 1 star), and Washington Local ranks 571st of 773 districts (26th percentile, 1 star), so the school is roughly typical for a below-average district. Its long-run trend has slipped from the 41st percentile in 2015–16 to the bottom third, where it has been stable for four years, including 26th, 28th and 27th in the last three. Within its district, it sits between stronger schools such as McGregor Elementary School and Meadowvale Elementary School and weaker Greenwood Elementary School. It generally outperforms nearby Toledo City schools like DeVeaux Elementary School, Larchmont Elementary School, Longfellow Elementary School and Whittier Elementary School, but Elmhurst Elementary School—a Toledo City school 1.43 miles away—ranks in the 71st percentile with 4 stars, has lower chronic absenteeism and much higher 5th-grade results.

Attendance is a relative strength: chronic absenteeism fell from 39.6% in 2021–22 to 22.2% in 2025–26, now roughly level with the district and better than most nearby schools. The student-teacher ratio, however, rose from 18.1:1 to 22.2:1 in two years. In academics, ELA is close to district levels and 3rd- and 4th-grade math is at or slightly above district, but 5th-grade math (35.6% proficient vs. 45.6% district) and especially 6th-grade math (19.6% vs. 46.8% district and 56.2% state) are serious weaknesses; 6th-grade math has stayed between 19.6% and 29.3% across recent cohorts. Special education students are the lowest-performing subgroup (9th percentile, 0 stars), while low-income students (31st percentile) outperform the school overall. The bottom line: Silver Creek Elementary School is a large, high-poverty, below-average school holding near the 27th percentile, with improved attendance but a persistent upper-grade math problem.

I hated this school, the rules were very strict and in my second year, we weren't even allowed to be with out freinds at lunch or recess. I feel bad for the kids who have to spend all 6 years of thier Elementary School life at this school. It was absolute tourture for me. The classes were bland and the curiculum was boring. Everything about the school just oozed despair. In my second year there, which, thankfully was my last year there, WE WEREN'T EVEN ALLOWED TO TOUCH THE WALLS!!! The loop was horrible and there would be a line going all the way out to Laskey for dimissal. Busses were bad too becuase we would have to sit on the hard gym floor for nearly a quater of an hour just so we could get on the bus. Going to that school was one of the worst experiences of my life and I never even want to see that place again exept to see it crumble to the ground! Close Quote

I do not like this old school nor do I like the traffic and pick up situation!! A child is going to get hit running to the carryout, while the parents are overcrowding to pick up their children.When they could easily have PAVED OR SUPPLIED US WITH AMPLE PARKING ACROSS THE STREET. And have a adult guard to safely cross our children!! The drop off is a joke, the loop is a joke and no light to help anyone out.The thing they call a loop is ridiculis!! Close Quote
