Shadeville stands out as a true "math powerhouse" in the region. In 5th-grade math, an impressive 83% of students were proficient, which is 21 percentage points higher than the state average and 10 points higher than the district average. This strength is consistent across grades, with 3rd and 4th-grade math scores also well above state benchmarks. The school’s science performance is equally notable, with 76% of 5th-graders proficient—16 points above the state. When compared to nearby schools, Shadeville’s math scores are in a league of their own; for example, its 5th-grade math proficiency is nearly double that of the best-performing Leon County school in the area, Bond Elementary School (59%). While English Language Arts (ELA) scores are solid, with 5th-grade at 72%, 3rd and 4th-grade ELA (63%) are only slightly above the state average, suggesting an area for potential growth.

Beyond academics, Shadeville fosters a more engaged school community. Its chronic absenteeism rate of 28.2% is significantly lower than the Wakulla district average (36.3%) and dramatically lower than nearby schools like Medart Elementary School (45.5%) and the Wakulla Coast Charter School Of Arts Science & Technology (61.4%). This consistent, high-level performance across multiple subjects and a stable 4-star rating over four years make Shadeville a reliable choice for families seeking a strong educational foundation in the Crawfordville area.
