Rosa Parks Elementary School

Summary:

Rosa Parks Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Toledo, Ohio, with a student population of 263. 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.

Rosa Parks Elementary consistently ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Ohio, with proficiency rates well below the Toledo City and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 5% of 5th-grade students were proficient in Science, compared to 32% for Toledo City and 64% for the state. The school also has an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate, reaching 65.7% in 2020-2021, which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools and the state average. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.7 to 16.4 over the past few years, the school's academic performance remains a significant concern.

While the nearby schools, such as Robinson Elementary School and Glenwood Elementary School, also have relatively low academic performance and high chronic absenteeism rates, Rosa Parks stands out as the lowest-performing school in the area. This suggests that the challenges faced by Rosa Parks may be more severe or deeply rooted than those of its neighbors, and a comprehensive, data-driven approach is needed to address the root causes of these issues and improve outcomes for the students.

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.
