Lakemont Elementary stands out for its diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (41.08%) and African American (11.62%) students compared to nearby schools.

Academically, Lakemont Elementary generally performs better than the Orange County and Florida averages on standardized tests, but lags behind top-performing nearby schools like Dommerich Elementary and Baldwin Park Elementary.

Despite its strong performance compared to district and state averages, Lakemont Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from 311 out of 2,064 Florida elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 774 out of 2,256 in 2023-2024. The school's higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (42.72%) suggests a larger proportion of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to the challenges it faces.

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.
