Summary

Stewart Street Elementary School is a public elementary school in Quincy, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with 473 students. The school is part of the Gadsden School District, which is ranked 64th out of 67 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Stewart Street Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Florida elementary schools, with high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 30.9% to 56.0% over the past few years. The school's academic performance, as measured by state assessment proficiency rates, is very low compared to the state and district averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 25-49% of Stewart Street students were proficient in English Language Arts and Math, compared to 55-63% statewide. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students (83.72% to 91.12%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Interestingly, the nearby Havana Magnet School, Greensboro Elementary, and George W. Munroe Elementary also have relatively low academic performance and high rates of economic disadvantage, suggesting that the challenges faced by Stewart Street Elementary are not unique to that school but are more systemic within the Gadsden district. However, the Gadsden Elementary Magnet School, located just 1.15 miles from Stewart Street Elementary, has significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates often exceeding 50% and even reaching 100% in some subjects, indicating that the magnet school model may be an effective approach for improving student outcomes in the district.
