Best Public Schools in Zip Code 33707


Summary:

The 33707 zip code area in Pinellas County, Florida, is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools and 2 high schools, all part of the Pinellas school district. While the district is ranked 23rd out of 68 in the state, the schools in this area present a mixed picture, with some standout performers and others struggling to meet academic standards.

Boca Ciega High School stands out with a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 90.8%, but it also has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 50.0%, significantly higher than the district and state averages. In contrast, Disston Academy, an alternative high school, has very low test scores, with only 0-26% of students proficient in various subjects, and an extremely low four-year graduation rate of just 29.8%. The two elementary schools, Gulfport Montessori Elementary School and Bear Creek Elementary School, show more promising metrics, but the overall performance of the schools in this area suggests significant challenges, particularly in terms of equity and resource allocation.

The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across all the schools, ranging from 63.5% to 85.8%, indicate that the 33707 zip code faces significant socioeconomic challenges, which may be contributing to the academic struggles observed, especially at Disston Academy. The racial makeup of the schools, with a majority African American student population, coupled with the low academic performance, raises questions about equity and the need for targeted interventions to support students in this community.
