Summary

Sorrento Elementary is a mid-sized public school in Sorrento, FL, serving 841 students from Pre-K through 5th grade and part of the Lake County school district.

This school stands out for its exceptional math performance, with 4th graders achieving an 89% proficiency rate—24 points higher than both the district and state averages. English Language Arts scores are also strong, with 4th graders at 71% proficiency, far outpacing nearby schools like Triangle Elementary School and Eustis Elementary School. Sorrento achieves these results while spending less per student ($11,869) than its Lake County peers, and it has a lower rate of students eligible for free or reduced lunch (38.53%) compared to schools like Eustis Heights Elementary School (60.96%). The school has shown a remarkable academic rebound, jumping from a 2-star rating in 2023-2024 to a 3-star rating and the 67th percentile in 2025-2026, with 3rd-grade math scores rising from 52% to 74% in just one year.

However, Sorrento faces a significant challenge with chronic absenteeism at 35.5%, which is higher than the state average and over three times the rate at nearby high-performing schools like Round Lake Charter School (11.6%) and Wolf Lake Elementary (17.8%). While Sorrento is a standout in its Lake County cohort, it is outperformed by top Orange County schools like Wolf Lake, which has similar demographics but much lower absenteeism. Science scores, while improved from 42% to 64%, remain a relative weakness compared to math and reading. Overall, Sorrento is a solid, efficient school with strong academics, but addressing attendance is key to reaching the next level.
