Summary

Eustis Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Eustis, Florida, with 391 students enrolled. The school is part of the Lake District, which is ranked 30 out of 67 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's higher spending per student ($12,615 to $13,665) compared to nearby schools ($7,891 to $13,442), Eustis Elementary consistently underperforms on test scores. For example, in 2024-2025, only 32% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 56% in the district and 57% statewide. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 37.7% over the past few years, significantly higher than the typical 10-15% seen in many schools. Additionally, Eustis Elementary has a much higher percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 52.17% to 65.08%, compared to 40-55% at nearby schools like Sorrento Elementary, Umatilla Elementary School, and Tavares Elementary School.

The school's performance has been declining over the past few years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1,110 out of 2,182 schools in 2018-2019 to 1,750 out of 2,256 schools in 2023-2024. This suggests that Eustis Elementary may need to closely examine its practices, strategies, and resource allocation to identify areas for improvement and learn from the successes of its higher-performing neighboring schools.
