Summary

Felix A Williams Elementary School in Stuart, FL, is a public school serving 500 students in grades PK-5 within the Martin County School District, and it has earned a strong reputation as a consistently high-performing school with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for eight of the last nine years.

This school stands out for its exceptional math performance, especially in 3rd grade, where 87% of students were proficient in the most recent school year—21 points above both the district and state averages. While English Language Arts (ELA) scores are also above average, math is a clear area of strength. Another key differentiator is its significantly lower chronic absenteeism rate of 19.6%, compared to the district's 27.3% and the state's 31.4%, reflecting a strong culture of attendance and family engagement. Despite about 40% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school achieves test scores that rival or exceed those of nearby schools with lower poverty rates, such as Palm City Elementary and Bessey Creek Elementary. It also outperforms higher-poverty schools like J. D. Parker School Of Technology and Pinewood Elementary by a wide margin.

Felix A. Williams occupies a strong "upper-middle" position in the district, ranking 4th among 7 Martin County elementary schools. It has shown remarkable resilience, rebounding from a dip in state ranking in 2021-2022 to climb back to the 82nd percentile by 2025-2026. The school also invests more per student ($14,142) than most peers, including top-performing Palm City Elementary ($10,789), and maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 15.1. This combination of higher spending and smaller class sizes likely supports its ability to deliver strong academic outcomes for a diverse student body, making it a reliable, high-quality option for families in the Stuart area.
