Summary

Hammock Pointe Elementary School in Boca Raton, FL, serves 924 students in grades PK through 5 and is part of the Palm Beach School District, which ranks in the 53rd percentile statewide.

Hammock Pointe is a consistently solid school with a strong academic track record, typically ranking in the 66th to 69th percentile statewide over the last five years. It had an exceptional peak in the 2023-2024 school year, jumping to the 82nd percentile and earning a 4-star rating. A standout feature is its perfect 100% proficiency rate in 6th Grade Math for four consecutive years, far outpacing district (65%) and state (60%) averages. The school also excels in 5th Grade Science, with recent scores of 71% and 67%—significantly higher than both district and state averages. However, its most recent ranking (67th percentile) is a notable dip from its peak, contrasting with nearby top performers like Addison Mizner School (93rd percentile) and Riverglades Elementary School (96th percentile), which have maintained high rankings. A key concern is chronic absenteeism, which at 25.4% is higher than the district average (23.4%) and significantly higher than nearby schools like Addison Mizner (12.6%) and Del Prado Elementary (18.8%).

Interestingly, Hammock Pointe is geographically sandwiched between two very different schools: high-performing Del Prado (87th percentile) and very low-performing Olympus International Academy (8th percentile), highlighting how school performance can vary dramatically within a small area. A positive trend is the drop in students eligible for free/reduced lunch from 42% to 34%, suggesting a changing demographic profile. Notably, the school with the highest spending per student, Coral Sunset Elementary ($18,431), has a lower state ranking (64th percentile) than Hammock Pointe, while Riverglades, with the lowest spending ($11,326), is the highest-ranked school in the area (96th percentile). This suggests that factors like parental involvement and school culture are powerful drivers of success beyond just funding.
