Tokay Elementary School is one of twenty-nine elementary schools in the Fontana Unified School District. It is a single-track, year-round school serving approximately 773 students in kindergarten through fifth grade, and supports a state preschool program on its campus. Over the past several years, our student population has changed rapidly, and today Tokay Elementary School's student population is a rich mixture of 86.4% Hispanic, 6.2% African-American, 5.7% Caucasian, and 1.7% other ethnic backgrounds. The proportion of children who speak English as a second language (30%) is increasing, with 154 students who require primary language support to be successful.
Tokay Elementary School enjoys the active support of its parents and other community members. There is an active PTA that raises funds to bolster such programs for our students as: field trips, books for the school library, trophies and other awards, disaster supplies, Red Ribbon Week, and student scholarships.
The Mission of the school as adopted by the entire staff (teachers, administrators, classified, Site Council, etc.) is: The community of Tokay Elementary School parents, students, and staff, are working together to create a positive and supportive learning environment where students are challenged to fulfill their academic and personal potential.
In its efforts to achieve this Mission the school works closely with several community groups, the Fontana Teachers' Association, the United Steelworkers Union Local 8599 (classified employees), the City of Fontana (Parks and Recreations and Performing Arts Center), and the PTA.
