Summary

Maplewood Elementary School is a public school in Coral Springs, FL, serving 476 students in grades PK-5 within the Broward County School District, and it has recently surged to an 84th percentile ranking, earning a 4-star rating.

Maplewood is a school on a powerful upward trajectory, transforming from a solid 3-star school into a high-performing 4-star institution. Its most impressive achievement is in 5th-grade Science, where 81% of students are now proficient—a dramatic leap from 38% just a few years ago and the highest rate among all nearby schools, outperforming even top-ranked Riverside Elementary (75%) and Westchester Elementary (71%). The school also shows remarkable consistency in English Language Arts (ELA), with proficiency rates of 73%, 77%, and 74% across 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades, respectively. This stability is a key differentiator from neighbors like Coral Springs Elementary, which drops from 81% in 3rd grade to 56% in 5th grade. In Math, Maplewood has seen explosive growth, with 5th-grade proficiency soaring from 55% to 83% in just two years—the largest positive swing among all nearby schools.

While Maplewood's academic gains are impressive, the school faces a persistent challenge with chronic absenteeism at 31.9%, which is significantly higher than Riverside Elementary's 22.1%. This suggests that the students who are present are performing exceptionally well, and reducing absenteeism could unlock even greater potential. The school spends $14,574 per student, notably higher than its high-performing rivals Riverside ($11,696) and Westchester ($10,932), which may reflect direct investment in the programs driving these recent gains. Overall, Maplewood is an up-and-comer that has rapidly closed the gap with its more consistently high-performing neighbors, making it a compelling choice for families seeking a school with strong, well-rounded academics and a clear upward trend.

Open Quote Principle Itty is terrible and has been pulling the school down since she started. There is no communication between school and parents. So far the teacher’s have been great, but we need to get rid of this principle. Close Quote
