Summary

Cypress Ridge Elementary School in Clermont, FL, is a high-performing public school serving 567 students in grades PK through 5 within the Lake district, consistently ranking among the top 12% of elementary schools in Florida for the past decade.

This school stands out for its exceptional academic results, with proficiency rates that far exceed both district and state averages. For example, 91% of 3rd graders are proficient in math, compared to the district average of 67%, and 89% are proficient in English Language Arts, versus the district's 62%. Cypress Ridge also boasts a remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of just 9.6%, which is significantly lower than nearby schools like Pine Ridge Elementary (23.0%) and Aurelia M. Cole Academy (35.7%). This suggests a highly engaged student body and strong family-school connections. While the school is not the absolute top-ranked in its immediate area—Pinecrest Lakes Academy outperforms it in some metrics despite larger class sizes—Cypress Ridge's consistent, decade-long record of excellence makes it a stable and desirable choice for families.

One area to watch is a recent dip in 5th-grade math proficiency, which fell from 89% to 69% in the latest testing year. However, the school's efficient use of resources, with per-student spending of $10,840, is notable for achieving strong results compared to less successful peers. Overall, Cypress Ridge offers a supportive and high-achieving environment, making it a standout option for families in Clermont.
