Summary:
There is only one school located in the 32187 zip code, Browning-Pearce Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. This school is part of the Putnam school district and appears to be underperforming academically compared to other schools in the state.
Browning-Pearce Elementary School has a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and is ranked 1802 out of 2256 Florida elementary schools. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on state assessments, is generally below the district and state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 41% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, and just 31% of 5th graders were proficient in Math. Additionally, the school has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 46%, which is likely contributing to its poor academic outcomes.
The school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 71.52% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the relatively high spending per student of $11,770, the school's academic performance has not improved. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate, improving instructional practices, and providing additional support and resources to the low-income student population may be key areas for improvement at Browning-Pearce Elementary School.
