Lake George Elementary

Summary:

Lake George Elementary is a public elementary school in Orlando, Florida, serving 452 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. 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.

Lake George Elementary has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (61.28%) compared to nearby schools like Passport Charter, Three Points Elementary, and Renaissance Charter School At Goldenrod. However, the school's academic performance lags behind the district and state averages, with lower test scores and a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 15.3% in 2018-2019 to 29.9% in 2022-2023. Additionally, Lake George Elementary has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 58.19%, which is higher than the surrounding schools.

Despite the higher spending per student at Lake George Elementary ($13,640 in 2022-2023) compared to the nearby schools, the school's academic performance has steadily declined, with its statewide ranking dropping from 582 out of 2,064 Florida elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 1,504 out of 2,256 in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school may need to evaluate the effectiveness of its resource allocation and explore targeted interventions and support programs to address the unique challenges faced by its diverse student population.

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.
