Q: Is Campbell Park Elementary School a good school?

Campbell Park Elementary School ranks 1247 th of 2256 Florida elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Campbell Park Elementary School is a public elementary school located in St. Petersburg, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 462. The school is part of the Pinellas County School District, which is ranked 23rd out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Campbell Park Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (86.15%) compared to the surrounding schools, it consistently underperforms the Pinellas County and Florida state averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 29% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 59% in Pinellas County and 55% statewide. Additionally, the school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 40.3% to 61.4% over the past few years, significantly higher than the surrounding schools such as North Shore Elementary, Lakeview Fundamental Elementary, and Woodlawn Elementary.

Despite the high per-student spending at Campbell Park Elementary, ranging from $16,305 to $19,619 over the past few years, the school has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Florida, with a ranking between 1,247 and 2,200 out of 2,256 schools in the state over the past several years. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 86.48% to 93.17%, indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may be a contributing factor to the school's persistent underperformance and chronic absenteeism issues.

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.
