Summary

Sunrise Elementary School is a public elementary school in Palm Bay, Florida, serving 868 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Brevard District, which is ranked 23 out of 67 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sunrise Elementary has some strengths, such as generally outperforming the state average in English Language Arts and Math, and particularly excelling in 5th grade Science, where 62% of students were proficient or better in the 2024-2025 school year. However, the school lags behind the district average in these subjects, and its 4th grade Math performance is notably lower, with only 28% of students proficient or better. The school also has higher chronic absenteeism rates than the district and state averages, which could impact student learning. Economically, Sunrise Elementary serves a higher proportion of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to the district and state.

When compared to nearby schools, Christa McAuliffe Elementary School and Pineapple Cove Classical Academy at Lockmar perform similarly to Sunrise Elementary, while Lockmar Elementary School, Port Malabar Elementary School, and John F. Turner Senior Elementary School generally perform lower. Westside Elementary School and Odyssey Preparatory Charter Academy show stronger performance in some areas compared to Sunrise Elementary.
