Summary

Village Green Environmental Studies School is a public elementary school in Port St. Lucie, FL, serving 586 students in grades PK-5 as part of the St. Lucie district, where 73.55% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school has experienced a significant decline over the past decade, dropping from a 71st percentile ranking (4 stars) in 2015-2016 to a 26th percentile (1 star) for the 2025-2026 school year. The most pressing concern is in mathematics, where proficiency rates are critically low compared to district and state averages. For example, 3rd-grade math proficiency sits at just 37%, compared to 65% district-wide and 66% statewide. This is the lowest among all comparable elementary schools in the area. In contrast, Morningside Elementary School, located just 1.26 miles away, achieves 87% proficiency in 3rd-grade math, highlighting a stark performance gap despite similar demographics. Chronic absenteeism is also a persistent issue, with a rate of 31.8% in 2023-2024, higher than the state average and significantly above high-performing nearby schools like Bayshore Elementary School (22.2%).

Despite these challenges, there are bright spots. Fifth-grade English Language Arts (ELA) scores are a notable strength, with 63% of students proficient in 2025-2026, outperforming both the district (58%) and state (61%) averages. Fifth-grade science proficiency (58%) is also nearly on par with district and state averages. This suggests pockets of instructional excellence in upper-grade literacy and science, even as foundational math skills need urgent attention. The school’s per-student spending ($11,313) is in the middle of the pack compared to peers, indicating that the decline is not primarily a funding issue but rather one of resource utilization and instructional strategy. For parents, this school offers strong upper-grade reading and science programs but requires careful consideration regarding math support and attendance challenges.
