Better than 13% of Florida elementary schools

Summary

Fairglen Elementary School in Cocoa, FL, serves 464 students in grades PK through 6 and is part of the Brevard district, with 67% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Over the past decade, Fairglen has consistently ranked in the bottom 15% of Florida elementary schools, with its state ranking percentile dropping from the 39th percentile in 2016 to the 13th percentile in 2025, and it has received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for several years. Test scores are significantly below district and state averages across most subjects and grade levels—for example, only 27% of 3rd graders were proficient in Math in 2025-2026, compared to 66% district-wide.

A major concern is Fairglen’s critically high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.8% (2023-2024), the highest among comparable schools in the area and well above the district average of 21.1%. This rate has remained persistently high, ranging from 32.6% to 38.9% since 2021. In contrast, nearby schools like Enterprise Elementary School (14.7% absenteeism) and Robert L. Stevenson Elementary School (6.3% absenteeism) have much lower rates and significantly higher test scores. Fairglen also spends more per student ($15,068) than many higher-performing peers, such as Enterprise ($11,431) and Robert L. Stevenson ($10,717), suggesting that funding alone is not the issue.

Despite these challenges, there is a notable bright spot: Fairglen’s 6th-grade program consistently achieves results on par with or above district and state averages. In 2025-2026, 74% of 6th graders were proficient in English Language Arts (matching the district average) and 79% were proficient in Math (exceeding the district average of 74%). This dramatic turnaround from lower grades—where proficiency rates are often half the district average—suggests a highly effective teaching team or intervention program that could serve as a model for improvement across the school.
