Summary

Key Largo School is a public school in Key Largo, FL, serving 690 students in Pre-K through 8th grade as part of the Monroe County School District, and it serves a higher percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds compared to nearby schools.

Key Largo School stands out from its neighbors in several important ways. It has a higher rate of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch (61.74%) compared to Ocean Studies Charter (24.44%), Treasure Village Montessori Charter School (30.17%), and Plantation Key School (34.08%). The school also struggles with chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 24.6% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is higher than Plantation Key School's 15.6%. While the school spends more per student ($20,741) than its peers, its overall state ranking is lower, currently at the 50th percentile (2 stars), compared to Plantation Key School's 76th percentile (4 stars).

Despite these challenges, Key Largo School shows notable strengths. It excels in advanced coursework, with 100% of students proficient in Algebra 1 and 84% proficient in Civics. The school also demonstrates a clear strength in Math, outperforming the district average in most grade levels. However, a persistent "5th grade slump" is a concern, with proficiency dropping significantly in both Math and Science for that grade. The school's leadership is focused on improving English Language Arts instruction and addressing the 5th-grade transition to better support all students.
