Summary

Reddick Elementary School in Wimauma, FL, is a public school serving 708 students in grades PK through 5 as part of the Hillsborough district, located in a predominantly low-income community where 61.58% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Academically, Reddick Elementary is a low-performing school with a state ranking at the 9th percentile, well below district and state averages across all subjects. A key concern is its high chronic absenteeism rate of 36.4%, which is significantly higher than nearby schools like RCMA Wimauma Community Academy (12.1%) and Dorothy C. York PK-8 Magnet School (11.7%). Another red flag is a steep decline in 5th-grade math proficiency, dropping from 48% in 4th grade to just 35%, a much sharper fall than district or state trends. Despite spending $13,000 per student—higher than high-performing peers like Dorothy C. York ($10,878) and Literacy Leadership Technology Academy South Bay ($9,386)—the school struggles to translate resources into results, suggesting inefficiencies in how funds are used.

On a positive note, recent FAST assessment data shows an upward trend from 2023-2024 to 2025-2026, with 3rd-grade ELA proficiency rising from 25% to 40% and math from 33% to 47%, indicating that interventions may be starting to work. The percentage of students on free/reduced lunch has also dropped sharply from 77.46% to 61.58%, a positive economic shift. Interestingly, within the same community, RCMA Wimauma Community Academy (a PK-8 school) achieves a 54th percentile ranking and 81% 3rd-grade math proficiency, showing that school-level factors like leadership and culture can overcome demographic challenges. This contrast highlights that while Reddick faces significant hurdles, improvement is possible with targeted efforts.

Open Quote The staff at this school are extremely rude. The principal is very absent and just overall my experience here has been a nightmare. The pick up and drop off lanes need major improvements. The school lacks of parent involvement and activities. It’s poorly managed. Close Quote
