Summary

Grassy Lake Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Minneola, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 1,335 students. The school is part of the Lake District, which is ranked 30 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Grassy Lake Elementary consistently outperforms the Lake District and the state of Florida in various standardized test scores, including FAST English Language Arts and Math, as well as Statewide Science/Science for 5th grade. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Grassy Lake's 3rd-grade FAST English Language Arts proficiency rate was 68%, compared to 56% for the Lake District and 57% for Florida. Similarly, their 3rd-grade FAST Math proficiency rate was 86%, compared to 63% for the Lake District and Florida. However, the school faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.3% to 37.7% in recent years, which is an area of concern.

Grassy Lake Elementary outperforms many of the nearby public elementary schools, such as Pine Ridge Elementary, Groveland Elementary, and Aurelia M. Cole Academy, in terms of test scores and overall school performance. However, it lags behind the high-performing charter schools in the area, such as Imagine Schools At South Lake, Minneola Conversion Charter School, and Pinecrest Lakes Academy, which consistently rank among the top elementary schools in the state.
