Oakshire Elementary

Summary:

Oakshire Elementary is a public elementary school in Orlando, Florida, serving 527 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Orange County School District. While the school's performance is generally on par with district and state averages, it faces some challenges, including high chronic absenteeism and a declining statewide ranking, despite maintaining a 3-star rating.

Oakshire Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (76.09%) compared to the surrounding schools and the state average. The school has also experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 11% in 2019-2020 to 32% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the surrounding schools. Academically, Oakshire's test scores in English Language Arts and Math are generally on par with or slightly above the Orange County and Florida averages, but they lag behind some of the higher-performing nearby schools like Endeavor Elementary and Wetherbee Elementary.

Despite maintaining a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, Oakshire Elementary's statewide ranking has declined from 461 out of 2,064 Florida elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 817 out of 2,256 in 2023-2024. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 52.37% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the surrounding schools. However, Oakshire has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio and has increased its spending per student, which may indicate a focus on providing additional resources and support to 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.
