Toano Middle consistently performs above the state average in many subject areas, particularly in Algebra I, Geometry, and English Reading. The school's 8th grade Algebra I proficiency rate is 94.74%, compared to the state average of 91.88%, and its 8th grade Geometry proficiency rate is 90.48%, significantly higher than the state average of 96.74%. In English Reading, Toano Middle's proficiency rates for 6th, 7th, and 8th grades are also above the state averages. However, the school's performance for certain student groups, such as Male, African American, White, and Low Socioeconomic Status, is relatively lower, ranking in the bottom half of Virginia middle schools.

Toano Middle's chronic absenteeism rates have fluctuated over the past few years, ranging from 10.2% to 19.3%, which is generally higher than the district and state averages. This is an area of concern that may be impacting the school's overall academic performance.
