Summary

Kenneth E. Adum Pk-8 Magnet School in Tampa, FL, is a high-performing public magnet school serving 1,007 students from Pre-K through 8th grade, located in the Hillsborough district, which ranks in the 36th percentile statewide.

Adum stands out as a beacon of academic excellence, holding a 5-star rating and ranking 72nd out of 2,240 elementary schools in Florida (97th percentile). Its test scores are consistently 20 to 40 percentage points higher than district and state averages across all subjects and grades. For example, math proficiency ranges from 83% to 94%, while English Language Arts proficiency reaches as high as 95% in 6th grade. The school achieves near-perfect scores on high school-level exams, including 99% in Algebra 1 and 100% in Geometry. This performance is particularly impressive in middle school grades (6-8), where Adum’s scores surpass even top K-5 schools like Grady Elementary School and Mabry Elementary School. For instance, Adum’s 8th grade ELA proficiency (91%) is significantly higher than the next best comparable school. The school serves a relatively affluent student body, with only 13.41% qualifying for free or reduced lunch, and spends $11,634 per student, which is moderate compared to nearby struggling schools like Westshore Elementary School ($16,427) and Lanier Elementary School ($16,877), which spend more but achieve far lower results.

The most compelling takeaway for parents is Adum’s unique value proposition: it offers a seamless, high-quality education from Pre-K through 8th grade, eliminating the need to transition to a new middle school. While families can send children to excellent K-5 schools like Roosevelt Elementary School or Mitchell Elementary School, they must then navigate the middle school transition. Adum provides a consistent, high-performing academic environment for a full decade, culminating in near-perfect scores on high school-level exams. This makes it a clear "destination school" in the Tampa market, outperforming even the best K-5 schools in the area, especially in middle school grades.
