However, the school's per-student spending of $11,330 is higher than the state average, and its student-teacher ratio of 14.4 is relatively low, which may help support the educational programs and resources available to students.

Overall, Tollesboro Elementary School appears to be a reasonably performing school, with some areas of strength and some areas for improvement. While the school faces challenges in serving its high-need student population, the higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio may be helping to mitigate these challenges and contribute to the school's overall performance.
