Hendry

Summary:

The Hendry school district in Florida consists of 13 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 2 high schools, and 2 alternative schools, serving students from diverse socioeconomic and racial backgrounds.

Among the standout schools in the district, Eastside Elementary School and Central Elementary School rank in the top 1,000 elementary schools in Florida and have 3-star ratings, with strong test scores in English Language Arts, math, and science. In contrast, the district's alternative schools, such as Digital Academy Of Florida and County Wide Exceptional Student Education, face challenges with lower academic performance and graduation rates.

The district as a whole grapples with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.6% to 43.9%, significantly higher than the state average of 13.6%. Additionally, the schools have a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage. While the middle schools, such as Labelle Middle School, perform better than the elementary schools, there is still considerable variation in academic outcomes across the district.
