Summary:
The 33566 zip code area in Florida is home to three elementary schools: Walden Lake Elementary School, Springhead Elementary School, and Trapnell Elementary School. Among these, Walden Lake Elementary stands out as the highest-performing school, with strong test scores, low chronic absenteeism, and a higher school ranking compared to the other two schools in the area.
While the schools have varying student racial demographics, with Walden Lake being the most diverse and Trapnell having the highest percentage of Hispanic students, the schools with higher percentages of students receiving free/reduced lunch, such as Springhead and Trapnell, generally have lower test scores and school rankings compared to Walden Lake.
Despite the differences in performance, all three schools in the Hillsborough district have relatively low student-teacher ratios, suggesting that class size may not be the primary driver of the observed differences in academic outcomes. The data highlights the importance of considering multiple factors, such as student demographics, test scores, and school rankings, when evaluating the quality of a school and the need for a holistic approach to understanding a school's performance and the factors that contribute to its success or challenges.
