Summary

Summerfield Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Riverview, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 830 students. The school is part of the Hillsborough County School District, which is ranked 49 out of 67 districts in Florida and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Summerfield Elementary School faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, lower test scores compared to the state and district averages, and a high percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Summerfield's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 42%, compared to 50% for Hillsborough County and 55% for the state. Additionally, the school has a free and reduced lunch rate ranging from 56.63% to 65.71%, which is significantly higher than nearby schools like Stowers Elementary (12.37%) and Creekside Charter Academy (52.39%).

Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $10,714 in the 2023-2024 school year, the academic performance of Summerfield Elementary School remains lower than the state and district averages. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate how resources are being allocated and utilized to support student learning. Comparing Summerfield to nearby schools, such as the higher-performing Stowers Elementary and the lower-performing Creekside Charter Academy, highlights the need for targeted interventions and resource allocation to address the challenges facing Summerfield Elementary School.
