Eleanor J. Toll Middle

Summary:

Eleanor J. Toll Middle is a public middle school located in Glendale, California, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 1,106 students. It is part of the Glendale Unified School District, which is ranked 364 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Eleanor J. Toll Middle has some areas of strength, such as its support for English Language Learners and Homeless students, the school faces challenges in improving its overall academic performance. The school's test scores in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics are generally lower than the Glendale Unified School District and the state of California averages. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 4.8% in 2017-2018 to 21.1% in 2022-2023. Compared to nearby schools, Rosemont Middle consistently outperforms Eleanor J. Toll Middle in both ELA and Mathematics, ranking in the top 5% and top 10% of California middle schools, respectively.

However, the school's ability to support the academic success of its English Language Learners and Homeless students is a strength that could be leveraged to improve outcomes for other subgroups. The relatively low performance of White students compared to other subgroups is an area that may warrant further investigation and targeted interventions. Overall, Eleanor J. Toll Middle has room for improvement in its academic performance and addressing the rise in chronic absenteeism, but it also has the potential to build on its successes in supporting specific student populations.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
