Summary

Michael McCoy Elementary is a public school in Orlando, FL, serving 459 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Orange school district. The school has faced significant challenges, recently dropping to a 1-star rating (19th percentile) in the 2025-2026 school year after a brief period of improvement, and now ranks among the lowest-performing elementary schools in the area.

One of the most telling comparisons is with Vista Pointe Elementary, located just 1.59 miles away and serving a similar-sized student population. While Vista Pointe is a 3-star school (60th percentile) with proficiency rates often exceeding district averages, Michael McCoy lags far behind. The school's chronic absenteeism rate remains stubbornly high at 36.2%, showing no signs of improvement, while nearby schools like Vista Lakes Elementary (69th percentile) are on an upward trajectory. Notably, Michael McCoy spends $14,616 per student—more than Vista Lakes ($13,838)—suggesting that funding alone isn't the issue.

There is one bright spot: 51% of 4th graders were proficient in English Language Arts in 2025-2026, the school's highest score across all subjects and grades. However, 5th-grade math and science proficiency (43% and 50%, respectively) are significantly below district and state averages. The post-COVID improvement the school saw between 2022 and 2024 has fully reversed, and the school now faces even greater challenges than before the pandemic. For parents considering this school, it's important to know that while there are pockets of strength, the overall trend points to persistent struggles that will require focused attention and support.
