Summary

Bevis Elementary School is a highly-ranked public elementary school in Lithia, Florida, serving 866 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Hillsborough County School District.

Bevis Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Florida, maintaining a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly outperforming the district and state averages on standardized tests. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 88% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better in FAST English Language Arts, compared to 53% in the Hillsborough district and 57% statewide. The school's chronic absenteeism rate, while higher than in previous years, remains lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, Bevis has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 16.97% in the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting a more affluent student population compared to some nearby schools.

When compared to nearby schools in the Hillsborough district, Bevis Elementary consistently outperforms them in academic metrics, such as test scores and statewide rankings. For example, Stowers Elementary School, located just 1.62 miles away, also has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, but its test scores are generally lower than Bevis. The school's higher spending per student ($9,454 in 2023-2024) compared to the district and state averages may contribute to its strong academic performance, as it allows for more resources and support for students.
