On May 27, 2026, Toledo Public Schools’ (TPS) Escuela SMART Academy held its 6th-grade graduation ceremony. Parents/Guardians and families were present with balloons, flowers, and gifts for their students. The gym was filled with excitement and hope for the students as they move forward in their education. Escuela’s graduation ceremony is significant because the students will be leaving a school where most have spent their entire academic lives. Escuela SMART serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. After 6th grade, students will either attend Jones Leadership Academy of Business (JLAB) or be admitted to one of the other TPS schools, such as the Aerospace & Natural Science Academy, Toledo Early College, or Toledo Technology Academy.
