Umatilla Elementary generally performs below the Lake District and Florida state averages on standardized tests, with 57% proficiency in 3rd grade ELA compared to 56% for the district and 57% for the state. However, the school excels in 5th grade math, with 70% proficiency, higher than the district (57%) and state (57%) averages. Umatilla Elementary also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.6% to 37.7%, and a relatively high percentage of students (around 50%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Compared to nearby elementary schools in the Lake District, such as Triangle Elementary, Treadway Elementary, and Pinecrest Academy Tavares, Umatilla Elementary generally underperforms in terms of test scores and other key metrics. Addressing the school's challenges with chronic absenteeism and serving a relatively disadvantaged student population could be crucial for improving student outcomes and better serving the Umatilla community.
