While the school's spending per student and student-teacher ratio are within reasonable ranges, North Andrews Gardens Elementary faces several challenges. It has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.4% to 33.6% over the past few years, significantly higher than the Broward County and Florida state averages. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally lower than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math 5-10 percentage points below.
