Summary

Robinson Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Plant City, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 549. The school is part of the Hillsborough School District, which is ranked 49 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Over the past several years, Robinson Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Florida elementary schools, with a ranking between 1195 and 1691 out of around 2,200-2,300 schools.

Robinson Elementary has several key metrics that differentiate it from other schools in the area. The school has had consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.1% to 31.4% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the Hillsborough district and state averages. Additionally, Robinson Elementary's test scores are generally lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 39% of 3rd graders were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 53% in Hillsborough and 57% statewide. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 77.41% to 82.58% over the past few years, much higher than nearby schools like Lincoln Elementary Magnet School and Valrico Elementary School.

Despite the higher per-student spending at Robinson Elementary, ranging from $10,234 to $13,735 per student, the school's performance still lags behind its peers. This suggests that simply allocating more resources may not be enough to address the underlying issues. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates, low test scores, and high rates of economic disadvantage will be critical to improving the school's performance and providing a high-quality education for its students.
