Walbridge Elementary School

Summary:

Walbridge Elementary School is a public K-8 school in Toledo, Ohio, serving a diverse student population of 280. The school is part of the Toledo City School District, which is ranked 652 out of 839 districts in Ohio and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Walbridge Elementary faces several key challenges. The school has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 47.1% to 60.2% over the past few years, significantly higher than the Toledo City and state averages. Academically, Walbridge's test scores are generally lower than the Toledo City and Ohio state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 13.6% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in Math, compared to 29.9% for Toledo City and 62.1% for Ohio. The school's performance also varies significantly by student subgroup, with some groups, such as African American students, ranking much lower than others.

While Walbridge's performance is generally lower than the district and state, it is interesting to note that some nearby schools, such as Escuela SMART Academy and Ella P. Stewart Academy for Girls, have higher test scores in certain subjects and grade levels. Understanding the practices and strategies used at these higher-performing schools could provide valuable insights for Walbridge. Additionally, despite the higher per-student spending at Walbridge, the school's academic outcomes remain low, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution.

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.
