Summary

Coronado Beach Elementary School in New Smyrna Beach, FL, is a small, high-performing public school serving 242 students in grades PK through 5, and it consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state.

This school is a standout in the Volusia district, earning a 5-star rating for four consecutive years and ranking 67th out of 2,240 Florida elementary schools. Its academic performance is exceptional, with proficiency rates far exceeding district and state averages. For example, 5th-grade math proficiency is an astonishing 97%, compared to the district's 62%, and 5th-grade English Language Arts proficiency is 88% versus the district's 60%. The school also spends more per student ($12,970) than many nearby peers, such as Port Orange Elementary School ($10,794), and has a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (27.27%) compared to schools like Chisholm Elementary School (50.31%) and Read-Pattillo Elementary School (55.83%).

While Coronado Beach's academic results are elite, its chronic absenteeism rate of 19.9% is a concern, though it is much better than the district average of 34.1% and has been improving. The school's small size fosters a personalized learning environment, and its sustained upward trajectory—from a 3-star rating in 2015-2016 to a top-tier 5-star school—highlights a remarkable turnaround. Compared to nearby 5-star school Sweetwater Elementary School, Coronado Beach outperforms in nearly every subject, suggesting its success goes beyond demographics to include a truly effective educational program.
