Summary

The Villages Elementary Of Lady Lake School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Lady Lake, Florida, with 762 students. It is part of the Lake District, which is ranked 30 out of 67 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school consistently outperforms the Lake District and the state of Florida in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, 69% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 56% for the Lake District and 57% for Florida. In math, 77% of 3rd graders were proficient or better, compared to 63% for the Lake District and Florida. However, the school has had relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 37.7% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 54.07% to 61.24% over the past few years, suggesting a more economically disadvantaged student population.

When compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as Treadway Elementary and Leesburg Elementary, The Villages Elementary stands out as a higher-performing school. However, the school's statewide ranking has declined from 466 out of 2,118 schools in 2017-2018 to 721 out of 2,258 schools in 2024-2025, suggesting that its performance may be declining relative to other schools in the state. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates and the needs of the more economically disadvantaged student population could be priorities for the school and district to help maintain and improve its performance over time.
