Summary

Timberlin Creek Elementary School is a high-performing, 5-star public school in St. Augustine, FL, serving 634 students in grades PK-5 within the top-ranked St. Johns School District.

Timberlin Creek stands out for its exceptional and consistent academic performance, particularly in math and science. In the most recent school year, its 3rd-grade math proficiency rate of 88% was the highest among nearby elementary schools, surpassing Julington Creek Elementary School and Durbin Creek Elementary School (both at 83%). The school also excels in 5th-grade science, achieving a 79% proficiency rate—the highest among traditional K-5 schools in the area and well above the district average of 71%. This strong performance is supported by higher per-student spending ($11,651) compared to many neighbors, including Julington Creek Elementary School ($9,308) and Durbin Creek Elementary School ($9,524).

While Timberlin Creek has a long history of being among the very best schools in Florida, its state ranking has slightly declined from the 97th percentile in 2021 to the 92nd percentile in 2025-2026. A growing concern is chronic absenteeism, which rose to 16.4% in 2023-2024—the highest rate among its closest peers like Hickory Creek Elementary School (10.7%) and Patriot Oaks Academy (6.8%). Families considering Timberlin Creek should note its strong elementary foundation, but may also want to explore nearby K-8 academies like Patriot Oaks Academy for a seamless transition into advanced middle school coursework.
