Summary

Eau Gallie High School is a traditional public high school in Melbourne, FL, serving 1,398 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Brevard district, which is ranked 24th out of 70 districts in Florida.

Eau Gallie has experienced a concerning downward trend over the past five years, dropping from a 3-star to a 2-star rating. The most critical weakness is in mathematics: only 34% of students were proficient in Algebra 1 and Geometry in the most recent year, which is nearly half the district and state averages. This is a stark contrast to nearby West Shore Junior/Senior High School, where 99% of students are proficient in Algebra 1. The school also struggles with chronic absenteeism, with 26.7% of students chronically absent in 2023-2024, compared to the district average of 21.1%. While the graduation rate rebounded to 90.6% in 2024-2025, it remains below the district average of 92.7% and has shown volatility in recent years.

Interestingly, Eau Gallie performs relatively well in Biology 1 (66% proficient) and US History (65% proficient), suggesting stronger instruction in those subjects. The school spends $11,709 per student, which is higher than the district average and significantly more than high-performing peers like Viera High School ($8,767), indicating that funding alone is not the issue. The school is geographically surrounded by top-performing schools, including West Shore (top 2% in Florida) and Satellite Senior High School (top 15%), highlighting the performance gap within the same district. The recent improvement in the graduation rate and a sharp drop in free/reduced lunch eligibility (from 56.3% to 41.5%) are positive signs, but the school's ability to reverse the trend in math proficiency will be the key indicator of its future trajectory.
