Summary

Rosewood Magnet School is a K-5 elementary school in Vero Beach, FL, serving 558 students as part of the highly-rated Indian River School District, and it consistently earns top marks for academic performance and student engagement.

What truly sets Rosewood apart is its exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of just 11.9%—roughly one-third of the district average (35.0%) and well below the state average (31.4%). This suggests a highly engaged student body and effective family outreach. Academically, the school delivers consistent excellence across all grades, with math proficiency ranging from 74% to 81% and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency from 68% to 92% in recent testing. Notably, Rosewood also reports outstanding results for a small group of 6th graders taking advanced coursework, with 98% proficient in math and 86% in ELA. When compared to nearby non-magnet schools like Citrus Elementary School or Vero Beach Elementary School, Rosewood’s test scores are 15 to 30 percentage points higher, highlighting the strength of its magnet program.

While both are high-performing, Rosewood and Osceola Magnet School have different strengths: Rosewood excels in ELA, especially in 3rd grade (92% proficient), while Osceola leads in math. Rosewood also serves a slightly more diverse socioeconomic population, with about 50% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, yet still achieves top-tier results. Interestingly, Rosewood’s per-student spending ($11,836) is moderate compared to lower-performing peers like Glendale Elementary School ($14,490), suggesting its success is driven by its magnet curriculum, school culture, and low absenteeism rather than funding alone. A slight dip in 4th grade ELA proficiency (68%) is a minor area for potential focus, but overall, Rosewood stands out as a stable, high-achieving school in a district with varied performance levels.
