Summary

Astoria Park Elementary School is a PK-5 public school in Tallahassee, FL, serving 479 students within the Leon district, where over 76% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.

Astoria Park has shown a remarkable academic turnaround, particularly in 5th-grade math, where 70% of students were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year—outpacing both the district (65%) and state (62%) averages. This represents a 28-percentage-point jump from the previous year, the largest single-year improvement in any subject among nearby schools. However, the school faces a significant challenge with chronic absenteeism: 39.5% of students were chronically absent in 2023-2024, more than double the rates at nearby schools like Kate Sullivan Elementary School (19.3%) and Sealey Elementary School (18.9%). Despite this obstacle, the school has improved its state ranking for four consecutive years, moving from the 3rd percentile to the 34th percentile.

Astoria Park spends $13,470 per student, higher than the district average and more than many higher-performing nearby schools, such as The School Of Arts And Sciences On Thomasville ($9,278 per student), which achieves top-tier scores with a much lower free/reduced lunch rate (9.76%). This contrast highlights that factors like poverty and school culture are powerful predictors of success. While math scores are now a strength across all tested grades, English Language Arts scores remain below district averages, and 5th-grade science has been volatile, rebounding to 42% proficiency in 2025-2026 but still trailing the district (56%) and state (60%).
