Summary

Kids Community College Riverview South (K-12) in Riverview, FL, is a charter school serving 558 students from Kindergarten through 8th grade within the Hillsborough school district, where about 48% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. This school presents a unique "Jekyll and Hyde" performance profile: its middle school grades (6th-8th) are a standout, while its elementary grades (3rd-5th) consistently lag behind district and state averages. For instance, 7th-grade math proficiency soared to 84% in the most recent year, a massive 45-point advantage over the district average of 39%, and competitive with top local charters like Winthrop Charter School (85%) and Riverview Academy of Math and Science (79%). In contrast, 4th-grade ELA proficiency was just 48%, below the district's 57% and state's 60%.

The school also excels in end-of-course exams for 8th graders, with 89% proficiency in Civics, 78% in Algebra 1, and 68% in Science—all significantly outperforming district and state averages. This suggests a strong academic program for older students, particularly in STEM and social studies. However, the school's overall state ranking has declined from the 66th percentile in 2015-2016 to the 35th percentile in the most recent year, and its star rating has dropped from 3 stars to 2 stars. Despite this, recent test scores show improvement across most subjects, hinting at a potential turnaround that hasn't yet been reflected in the overall ranking.

Chronic absenteeism, a major concern that peaked at 35.9% in 2021-2022, has improved to 26.4%, now below the district average of 31.3%. Compared to its sister school, Kids Community College Riverview Southeast (a 1-star school), the South campus is significantly more effective, especially in 8th-grade Science (68% vs. 28%). While it cannot compete on overall performance with higher-ranked charters like Winthrop Charter School (4-star, 80th percentile), Kids Community College Riverview South offers a clear niche: it dramatically accelerates math performance in 7th grade and provides strong EOC preparation, making it a compelling option for families seeking a school that adds value for students who may have struggled in elementary school.

If you love to teach do NOT work for this school. They fire teachers on a regular basis for minor things and then they will lie about it to ruin your career. Look up other reviews. They have a high teacher turn over rate. Close Quote

I have had kids in KCC since it opened and would not put them anywhere else! Close Quote

I've have been attending KCC since it began in 2003. The growth of the school has been tremendous, while the feeling of family has remained in tact. I'm amazed at what the leaders of the school have been able to accomplish without loosing focus on quality and individual focus. They recently built a beautiful 49,000sf facility for it's students and have an amazing array of programs. They are even beginning to show excellence in sports too!

I love this school! They demand participation from parents and expect the best from every student. This school easily compares to and exceeds the private education we paid for our older children at two of the highest performing private schools in Tampa Bay. I wish KCC had been around for them.

Now if we could only get them to consider opening a High School!!! Close Quote

I am so pleased that I chose to enroll my son at Kid's Community College Charter School. I can not speak highly enough of the individual attention and caring environment that my son was given during this past school year. At Kid's Community College we are not simply a number at a school, but members of an educational community. We can't wait to start the new school year in August. Go Cougars!!!! Close Quote
