Summary

Pride Elementary School in Deltona, FL, is a mid-sized school serving 568 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the Volusia County School District, where 59.5% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Pride Elementary has shown remarkable academic growth over the past few years, climbing from the 28th percentile statewide in 2021-2022 to the 63rd percentile in 2025-2026—a 17-point jump in just the last two years. This upward trend sets it apart from nearby schools like Spirit Elementary and Discovery Elementary, which have seen stagnant or declining performance. The school particularly shines in early math: 72% of 3rd graders and 74% of 4th graders are proficient, significantly outpacing district and state averages. However, a "5th grade slump" is a concern, with math proficiency dropping to 58% in 5th grade—a pattern more pronounced here than at Enterprise Elementary, where 5th-grade math actually improved. Science scores are improving but remain a relative weakness compared to Volusia Pines Elementary.

Despite these strengths, chronic absenteeism is a persistent challenge, with a 33.3% rate in 2023-2024—higher than the state average and notably worse than Timbercrest Elementary (22.6%). Pride invests more per student ($11,629) and maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio (14.5:1) compared to Timbercrest, yet still faces headwinds from higher poverty levels. Compared to its closest geographic neighbor, Sunrise Elementary, which ranks in the 40th percentile despite a similar poverty rate, Pride stands out as a "bright spot" in the area, demonstrating that strong academic growth is possible even in challenging circumstances.
