Pineloch Elementary

Summary:

Pineloch Elementary is a public elementary school in Orlando, Florida, serving 764 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Orange County School District, which is ranked 31 out of 68 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

Pineloch Elementary faces significant challenges compared to nearby schools. The school has a much higher percentage of African American students (63.48%) and consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 42.7% to 54.4% over the past few years. This is significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 8.56% to 90.93% African American and 17.0% to 51.9% chronic absenteeism. Pineloch Elementary's test scores are also consistently lower than the Orange County and Florida state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Pineloch Elementary's 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was 39%, compared to 57% for Orange County and 55% for the state.

Despite the increase in spending per student, from $8,938 in 2019-2020 to $11,038 in 2022-2023, Pineloch Elementary has not shown significant improvement in its academic performance over the years. The high rates of poverty, as indicated by the free and reduced lunch percentages (ranging from 78.06% to 78.93%), and the chronic absenteeism issues may be contributing factors to the low academic performance at Pineloch Elementary. Addressing these social and economic challenges, as well as implementing targeted interventions, will be crucial in improving student outcomes at the school.

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.
