Summary:

Woodland Elementary School is a public elementary school in Zephyrhills, Florida, serving 802 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Pasco District, which is ranked 42 out of 68 districts in Florida and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Woodland Elementary School faces significant challenges, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 47.4% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the district and state averages. The school also consistently underperforms compared to the Pasco District and Florida state averages in test scores, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades around 28-34%, while the district and state averages were around 50-60%. Additionally, Woodland Elementary has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 81.92% in the 2022-2023 school year, indicating a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of Florida elementary schools, with a ranking of 2161 out of 2256 schools in the 2023-2024 school year.

When comparing Woodland Elementary School to other nearby schools in the Pasco District, it becomes evident that the school is underperforming across multiple metrics. For instance, Union Park Charter Academy and Academy At The Farm, both public charter schools within a 6-mile radius, significantly outperform Woodland Elementary in test scores, chronic absenteeism, and overall school rankings. This suggests that factors beyond just funding, which has increased from $7,978 per student in 2019-2020 to $9,269 per student in 2022-2023, may be contributing to the school's underperformance.

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.
