Aloma Elementary

Summary:

Aloma Elementary is a public elementary school in Winter Park, Florida, serving 543 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Orange County School District, which is ranked 31 out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Aloma Elementary has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (48.43%) compared to the state and district averages. The school has also experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 15.8% in 2018-2019 to 33.0% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the district and state averages. Academically, Aloma Elementary's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math are generally below the district and state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 51-53% and 44-55%, respectively, in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.6% to 59.12% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Baldwin Park Elementary and Dommerich Elementary, Aloma Elementary's performance is generally lower, with significantly higher academic proficiency rates and lower chronic absenteeism. Even the nearby Renaissance Charter School at Chickasaw Trail, a public charter school in the same district, has lower academic proficiency rates and higher chronic absenteeism compared to Aloma Elementary. These findings suggest that Aloma Elementary faces unique challenges that may be related to the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, and targeted interventions and support programs may be necessary to improve student outcomes.

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.
