Titusville High School

Titusville High School is a traditional public high school in Titusville, FL, serving 1,275 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Brevard County School District, a district ranked 24th out of 70 in Florida.

Titusville High School is a school of striking contrasts. On one hand, it boasts a strong graduation rate of 94.2%, which is above both the district and state averages, and an impressive 83% proficiency rate in U.S. History. On the other hand, the school struggles significantly with math, posting an Algebra 1 proficiency rate of just 17%—a dramatic 66-percentage-point gap from its best subject. This is the largest such gap among nearby high schools. While the school’s Biology 1 proficiency rate of 64% is a relative bright spot, its overall academic performance has declined over the past decade. A growing concern is chronic absenteeism, which has risen from 15.2% to 25.7% over the last few years, now notably higher than the district average of 21.1%.

For parents comparing options, Titusville stands out against its closest neighbor, Astronaut High School, just 3.5 miles away. Both schools serve similar student populations, but Titusville outperforms Astronaut in nearly every academic metric, including higher proficiency in 9th Grade ELA (64% vs. 60%) and Geometry (40% vs. 39%). However, the contrast with Edgewood Junior/Senior High School, a top-performing school in the state, is stark. Edgewood has near-perfect test scores and a 100% graduation rate, but it serves a much lower percentage of students eligible for free or reduced lunch (12.53% vs. Titusville’s 48.39%). This comparison highlights how student demographics can correlate with outcomes. Despite spending more per student ($11,262) than many comparable schools, Titusville’s results are mixed, suggesting funds may be directed toward support services that help boost its graduation rate.
