Summary:
The city of Groveland, Florida is home to three schools serving grades K-12: South Lake High School, Gray Middle School, and Groveland Elementary School. While Lake District schools show a mix of performance, with some standout metrics, Groveland Elementary in particular struggles, ranking in the bottom 10% of Florida elementary schools.
Gray Middle School stands out for its strong performance on Algebra 1 and Geometry exams, but lags in English Language Arts proficiency. South Lake High School has a high 92% graduation rate, but struggles with Algebra 1 proficiency. In contrast, Groveland Elementary has very low proficiency rates across the board, with only 29-40% of students meeting standards in ELA and Math.
Chronic absenteeism is a concern across all three Groveland schools, ranging from 34.1% to 45.5%. The high free/reduced lunch rates at Groveland Elementary (63.04%) and Gray Middle School (47.3%) suggest these schools serve economically disadvantaged populations, which likely contributes to their lower academic performance. Ensuring equitable access to resources and support for all students will be key to improving outcomes across the Lake District.
