Indialantic Elementary School

Indialantic Elementary School is a high-performing public school in Indialantic, FL, serving 662 students from Pre-K through 6th grade in a community known for strong family engagement and academic support.

This school stands out for its exceptional and consistent academic performance, ranking in the top 7% of all Florida elementary schools for the last five years. In the most recent testing year, proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math ranged from 74% to 90%, with every grade level significantly exceeding both the Brevard district and state averages. A key differentiator is its remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of just 9.7%, which is less than half the district average and a third of the state average. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools like University Park Elementary (41.5%) and Palm Bay Elementary (32.5%), highlighting the strong student and family engagement at Indialantic. The school also demonstrates efficient resource use, spending $10,802 per student—less than many lower-performing peers—while achieving top-tier results.

Indialantic is part of a cluster of high-achieving "beachside" schools, including Surfside Elementary and Gemini Elementary, all ranking in the top 12% of Florida schools. Notably, the school's 6th graders consistently outperform all other grades, achieving a 93% proficiency rate in ELA and 87% in Math—a full 19 points above the district average in ELA. While overall performance is stellar, there is a slight dip in 5th-grade science and math scores, which could be an area for targeted focus. With only about 20% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a relatively affluent community, and its consistent excellence makes it a standout choice for families in the area.
