Sheridan Park Elementary School

Q: Is Sheridan Park Elementary School a good school?

Sheridan Park Elementary School ranks 1069 th of 2256 Florida elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Sheridan Park Elementary School is a public elementary school in Hollywood, Florida, serving 494 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Broward County School District, which is ranked 30th out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sheridan Park Elementary School stands out for its diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (50.4%) compared to nearby schools. However, the school has faced significant challenges, including a spike in chronic absenteeism from 4.9% in 2019-2020 to 32.9% in 2021-2022, which is higher than the range of 28.3% to 42.7% at nearby schools. Academically, Sheridan Park's test scores in English Language Arts and Math are generally lower than the Broward County and Florida state averages, particularly in 4th and 5th grades, though its 5th-grade Science proficiency is closer to the district and state averages.

Despite increased spending per student, from $10,585 in 2019-2020 to $13,686 in 2022-2023, which is higher than the nearby schools, Sheridan Park Elementary School's statewide ranking has declined, from a high of 906 out of 2,087 Florida elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 1,069 out of 2,256 in 2023-2024. This suggests the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the challenges it faces and improve student outcomes, especially in comparison to the performance of West Hollywood Elementary School, Pasadena Lakes Elementary School, and other nearby schools.

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.
