Elmhurst Elementary School

Summary:

Elmhurst Elementary School is a public K-8 school in Toledo, Ohio, serving 382 students. Despite being part of the Toledo City School District, which has a 1-star rating, Elmhurst stands out as a relatively high-performing school, consistently outperforming the district and state averages on academic assessments.

Elmhurst Elementary maintains a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking in the top 40% of Ohio elementary schools. The school's academic performance is particularly strong, with 82.1% of 3rd graders proficient or better in Math, compared to 29.9% for Toledo City and 62.1% for Ohio. Elmhurst also excels in serving certain student subgroups, with its African American and low-income students ranking in the top 25% of Ohio elementary schools. Additionally, the school has seen a decrease in chronic absenteeism, from 18.2% in 2021-2022 to 9.9% in 2023-2024, which is lower than the Toledo City average.

While Elmhurst Elementary stands out as a high-performing school within the Toledo City district, it faces some challenges. The school's gifted and talented program has seen fluctuating performance, and its special education students rank in the bottom 25% of Ohio elementary schools, indicating areas for improvement. However, Elmhurst's higher per-student spending of $13,144, compared to nearby schools like McKinley STEMM Academy, DeVeaux Elementary, and Longfellow Elementary, which all have 1-star ratings, suggests that the additional funding and resources may contribute to Elmhurst's stronger academic outcomes.

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.
