Summary

Timber Creek High in Orlando, FL, is a large public high school serving 3,383 students in grades 9-12 in the Avalon Park area of Orange County, known for its strong academic track record and near-perfect graduation rate.

Timber Creek consistently delivers excellent academic outcomes, with test scores in core subjects like Biology 1 (87% proficient) and English Language Arts (74% in 10th grade) significantly outperforming state averages. Its graduation rate has remained above 98.9% for the past five years, a full 6-7 percentage points higher than nearby schools like Colonial High (94.6%) and University High (95.4%). The school also operates efficiently, spending $9,284 per student—less than East River High ($10,064)—while achieving superior results. However, a notable concern is its chronic absenteeism rate of 36.8%, which is higher than the district (35.2%) and state (31.4%) averages, creating a paradox given its otherwise stellar performance.

Compared to its top competitor, Hagerty High School in Seminole County, Timber Creek slightly trails in some metrics, such as ELA scores (74% vs. 78%) and US History proficiency (81% vs. 88%), and has a much higher absenteeism rate (36.8% vs. 18.8%). Despite a gradual decline in state ranking from 97th to 163rd over the past eight years, Timber Creek’s test scores have remained stable, suggesting other schools are improving faster rather than a drop in its own quality. Overall, Timber Creek is a highly effective school with strong academics and efficiency, though families should be aware of the absenteeism issue and consider how it might affect student engagement.
