Summary

Shingle Creek Elementary is a public school in Orlando, FL, serving 633 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the Orange district, with a high percentage of students from low-income families.

The most compelling story about Shingle Creek is its dramatic academic turnaround. After a low point in the 2023-2024 school year, the school has seen double-digit percentage point gains in nearly every subject and grade level. For example, 5th Grade Science proficiency jumped from 24% to 44%, and 3rd Grade Math went from 37% to 51%. This upward trajectory is unique among nearby schools like Millennia Elementary and Palmetto Elementary, which have remained stagnant or declined. A standout bright spot is 4th Grade Math, where 62% of students are now proficient—nearly tying the district average and only 3 points below the state average. The school also has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 30.9%, which is better than its closest neighbors and the district average, providing a strong foundation for continued improvement.

Interestingly, Shingle Creek’s recent success does not appear to be driven by higher spending, as its per-student spending is in the middle of the pack compared to nearby schools. The school is also outperforming Millennia Elementary in several subjects, despite serving a higher percentage of students from low-income families. While the school still has room to grow—5th Grade Math remains a persistent weakness at 41% proficiency—the momentum is clearly positive. For parents considering this school, the data suggests a dedicated staff and effective instructional changes are making a real difference for students.
