Summary:
Toledo, Washington, has four schools serving about 906 students in grades prekindergarten through 12: Toledo Elementary School, Toledo Middle School, Toledo High School, and Cowlitz Prairie Academy, all part of the Toledo School District. The district serves a small community, and its overall ranking is 165th of 238 Washington districts, or approximately the 31st percentile.
The strongest overall current results are at Toledo High School, which ranks in the 47th percentile and reports a 92% graduation rate, well above the 82.6% state rate. Its English language arts proficiency is also strong at 66.67%, compared with 52.81% statewide. However, math proficiency is 30.51% and science proficiency is 31.25%, both below state averages. Toledo Elementary School is the district’s brightest spot in science, with 53.03% proficiency, slightly above the state rate, and its math result of 42.72% is nearly equal to the state average. Its English result, at 37.56%, remains a notable weakness.
Toledo Middle School is the clearest area of concern. It ranks in the 18th percentile, and its ELA, math, and science proficiency rates all trail both district and state results. Eighth-grade math is especially low at 17.54%, suggesting that the transition through middle school deserves close attention. Cowlitz Prairie Academy enrolls only 38 students, has the highest student-teacher ratio and free/reduced-price lunch participation, and has suppressed 2025–2026 test results; those results should be viewed as unknown rather than low. Overall, families may find the strongest current combination of outcomes at the high school, solid science and math performance at the elementary school, and the greatest need for improvement at the middle school.
