Pride Elementary School

Summary:

Pride Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Deltona, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 645. The school is part of the Volusia school district, which is ranked 36 out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Pride Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (44.5%) and lower percentage of White students (35.97%), it faces several challenges. The school has consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.5% to 34.5% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, Pride Elementary's test scores in English Language Arts and Math are generally lower than the Volusia district and Florida state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 5th-grade proficiency rates in ELA (47%) and Math (37%) were well below the district and state averages.

Pride Elementary's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 62.37% to 71.79% in recent years, indicates a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. While the school's per-student spending is generally higher than the nearby schools, ranging from $9,566 to $10,688 in recent years, the continued low performance suggests that the current resource allocation may not be effectively addressing the school's needs. Addressing the underlying socioeconomic and attendance issues could be crucial in improving student outcomes at Volusia Pines Elementary School, Enterprise Elementary School, and other nearby schools that also struggle with similar challenges.

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.
