Summary

Conway Elementary is a public school in Orlando, FL, serving 426 students in grades PK-5 within the Orange district, where a high percentage of families (63.4%) qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Conway Elementary has significant resources, spending $19,068 per student—the highest among nearby schools—and maintaining a very low student-teacher ratio of 11.5:1. However, these investments have not translated into strong academic results. The school’s state ranking has declined to the 23rd percentile, a notable drop from its recent peak. This is a stark contrast to nearby Blankner K-8, which ranks in the 87th percentile with lower spending ($13,505 per student). Even schools with similar demographics, like Dover Shores Elementary (44th percentile), consistently outperform Conway. A key challenge is chronic absenteeism, which, at 32.5%, is higher than the state average and significantly worse than high-performing neighbors like Blankner K-8 (17.6%).

Academically, Conway shows a relative strength in early-grade math, with 3rd and 4th-grade scores closer to state averages than its English Language Arts (ELA) scores, which remain a persistent weakness. A concerning pattern emerges in 5th grade, where scores drop sharply in both subjects—a "5th grade cliff" not seen at nearby schools like Lake George Elementary. Conway is part of a cluster of struggling schools in the area, including Michael McCoy Elementary (19th percentile) and Ventura Elementary (16th percentile), suggesting systemic challenges tied to the community’s socioeconomic conditions. Improvement likely requires targeted efforts to reduce absenteeism, boost ELA instruction, and address the drop-off in upper-grade performance.

What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, May 4, 2012

I am not a fan of some of the teachers and their methodology of instruction. At a parent teacher conference my son's teacher actually had the audacity to suggest that I take my son to the doctor in attempt to get him on ADHD drugs to help him "focus" better. He is an A-B honor roll student with a vocabulary several grade levels ahead. He is also very aware of his surroundings and yes he may have a shorter attention span when he is bored or not challenged by the given tasks. This is standard for children of his age. I am angered by the teacher's suggestion to put him on psych drugs and I wish for that insanity to stop.

Maybe the teachers/school gets some kind of cut from psychs for students that they are able to get on these meds! Close Quote
