Summary

Williston Middle High School in Williston, FL, serves 1,121 students in grades 6-12 within the Levy County School District, and it stands out for its high graduation rate of 95.7%—above the state average—despite overall academic performance that places it in the lower third of Florida high schools.

One of the school's biggest strengths is its exceptional 6th-grade math program, where 78% of students are proficient, significantly outperforming the district (68%), state (60%), and nearby schools like Bronson Middle/High School (56%) and Micanopy Academy (20%). However, this success doesn't carry through to later grades—only 35% of 8th graders are proficient in math, a steep drop that suggests a need for targeted support in middle school math instruction. The school also shows a bright spot in Geometry, with 50% proficiency, beating the district average and all nearby high schools, including North Marion High School (34%) and West Port High School (46%).

Despite these strengths, Williston faces persistent challenges. Chronic absenteeism affects nearly one in three students, which likely contributes to lower test scores in core subjects like Algebra 1 (42% proficient) and Biology (52%). The school spends more per student ($10,023) than nearby West Port High School ($8,443), yet West Port outperforms Williston in nearly every high school subject, suggesting that resources alone aren't the issue. For parents, this means Williston is a school that excels at keeping students on track to graduate and has standout math programs in early middle school, but it needs to address absenteeism and inconsistent instruction to help all students reach their potential.
