Bryan Elementary School

Q: Is Bryan Elementary School a good school?

Bryan Elementary School ranks 1677 th of 2256 Florida elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 1 star out of 5.

Summary:

Bryan Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Plant City, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 653. The school is part of the Hillsborough School District, which is ranked 45th out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Bryan Elementary has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (79.02%) compared to nearby schools, which range from 25.14% to 66.95% Hispanic students, it also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates (22.7% to 30.3%) and consistently lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to the Hillsborough district and Florida state averages. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd-grade ELA proficiency was 37%, compared to 51% for Hillsborough and 55% for Florida. Additionally, Bryan Elementary has an exceptionally high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 81.78% to 96.35%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the higher per-student spending at Bryan Elementary, ranging from $10,377 to $12,291 in recent years, the school's performance continues to lag behind its nearby counterparts, such as Trapnell Elementary School, Knights Elementary School, and Dover Elementary. This suggests that the resources may not be effectively targeted or utilized to address the unique needs of the student population at Bryan Elementary.

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.
