Summary

Tampa Bay Boulevard Elementary School is a public school in Tampa, FL, serving 591 students in grades PK-5 within the Hillsborough County School District, a district ranked in the 36th percentile statewide.

The school is currently in a state of emergency, with its state ranking plummeting from the 42nd percentile in 2021-2022 to the 2nd percentile (0 stars) for the 2025-2026 school year, making it one of the lowest-performing elementary schools in Florida. A major driver of this decline is a chronic absenteeism crisis, with 46.1% of students missing excessive school in 2023-2024—the highest rate among nearby schools and nearly 15 points above the district average. Academic proficiency rates are below 41% in every subject and grade level. For example, only 23% of 3rd graders are proficient in math, a stark contrast to West Tampa Elementary (78% proficient) and MacFarlane Park Elementary Magnet (80% proficient), both located just over a mile away. The school serves a high-poverty population, with 74.45% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, compared to just 28.61% at MacFarlane Park, which achieves top-tier results (75-96% proficiency) and has a chronic absenteeism rate of only 9.3%.

Despite a decrease in per-student spending from $12,476 to $9,675 over recent years, the data suggests that funding alone is not the solution. For instance, Graham Elementary spends $24,548 per student but ranks in the 10th percentile, while MacFarlane Park spends $13,035 and excels. The school’s rapid collapse—from a 2-star rating in 2021-2022 to 0 stars now—points to systemic failures in attendance, family engagement, and instructional quality that require urgent, intensive intervention. A slight bright spot is 4th grade, where 41% of students are proficient in English Language Arts, suggesting a potential area of focus for improvement.
