Summary

Gorrie Elementary School is a high-performing public elementary school in Tampa, Florida, serving 509 students in grades PK-5. The school consistently outperforms the Hillsborough School District and the state of Florida in academic assessments, maintaining a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gorrie Elementary's academic performance is exceptional, with proficiency rates significantly higher than the district and state averages in English Language Arts (ELA), Math, and 5th-grade Science. For example, Gorrie's 3rd-grade ELA proficiency rate was 93%, compared to 53% for Hillsborough and 57% for Florida. The school's strong performance is likely due to a combination of factors, including effective teaching, additional funding, and the socioeconomic status of the student population. However, Gorrie Elementary has a higher chronic absenteeism rate compared to the state average, an area that may require attention and intervention.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Patricia Sullivan Metropolitan Ministries Partnership School, Washington Elementary School, and Dunbar Elementary Magnet School, Gorrie Elementary's academic performance is significantly stronger. The nearby magnet and charter schools, like Rampello K-8 Magnet School and Channelside Academy of Math and Science, also demonstrate strong academic achievement, suggesting that specialized school models can be effective in improving student outcomes.

We're new to the area and had heard wonderful things about Gorrie - any reservations we may have had were quickly alleviated! The Principal and VP are very involved. They have a wonderful relationship with the teachers and parents. The KG teachers are all very good and we were extremely happy with the way classes were conducted. I would highly recommend this school! Close Quote
