Summary

Pinar Elementary is a public elementary school in Orlando, Florida, serving 363 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Orange County School District, which is ranked 32 out of 67 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio, Pinar Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to its peers. The school has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 35.8% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, Pinar's test scores are consistently lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects, with its 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate at 46% in 2024-2025, compared to 59% for the district and 57% for the state. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 72.97% to 74.54%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When comparing Pinar Elementary to nearby schools in the same district, such as Deerwood Elementary and Vista Lakes Elementary, it becomes clear that Pinar is underperforming. These nearby schools have significantly higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and lower percentages of students receiving free/reduced lunch. The data suggests that Pinar Elementary's low performance presents an opportunity for the district and school leadership to identify and address the root causes of the school's challenges, such as improving attendance, providing targeted interventions for struggling students, and engaging with the local community to better support the needs of the student population.

My 1st grade grandson has learning disabilities and for the second year in a row at Pinear, my daughter has recently found out his IEP (for children with disabilities) has not been followed and he will not be going to second grade. In fact, she was told that he is doing kindergarten level work and she just found that out also. Needless to say, she is looking to move him to another school. One that will provide the special care he needs. He was suppose to be receiving occupational therapy the past two years and again, just recently found out he hasn't been getting it. His teacher's comments regarding him not being up to level is that he is only one child and she doesn't have time to work with him. The school gets extra money for children with disabilities so maybe they need to get her a helper! Close Quote

pienso que las escuelas la hacen los maestro junto con sus alumnos pero desafortunadamente en esta escuela no todos los maestros son de calidad podriamos contarlos con los dedos de una sola mano ya que hay maestros jovenes que no saben dirijir a los ninos pretendiendo que pueden obligarlo a pensar como un adulto.pienso que todos tenemos una manera diferente de ensenar pero con pasiencia y con respeto al nino como si fuera tu propio hijo,uno de los problemas con estos maestros es que asumen y pretende que el nene ya sepa como pronunciar palabras o escribir claro y entendido,uno como padre le alluda al hijo a entender y en todo lo que pueda para verlo salir adelante como un triunfador!en cambio esta maestras todabia no aprenden a ensenar y la frustracion se la puedes ver al nino que no entiende por que simplemente la que dise ser maestra realmente no sabe ensenar...
