Summary

Aloma Elementary is a mid-sized public school in Winter Park, FL, serving 509 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Orange County School District.

Aloma Elementary has experienced a notable downward trend in academic performance over the last three years, currently holding a 2-star rating and ranking in the 33rd percentile statewide. This decline is especially stark when compared to nearby schools. For example, Dommerich Elementary (3.23 miles away) ranks in the 99th percentile with 5 stars, and Audubon Park School (3.15 miles away) ranks in the 93rd percentile. Even Brookshire Elementary, located just 0.71 miles away in the same zip code, is ranked in the 72nd percentile (4 stars). A key challenge at Aloma is chronic absenteeism, which reached 37.3% in the 2023-2024 school year—far higher than the rates at Dommerich (6.2%), Audubon Park (10.9%), and Brookshire (22.6%). Additionally, a "5th grade slump" is evident: while 3rd and 4th graders perform near district averages, 5th graders see a significant drop in both ELA and math proficiency, a pattern not seen at top-performing neighbors.

Despite these challenges, there are some positive aspects. Aloma’s 5th-grade science scores are a relative strength, with 56% proficiency in 2025-2026, close to the state average and higher than nearby Forsyth Woods Elementary (54%). The school also spends more per student ($12,251) than many high-performing neighbors, such as Dommerich ($11,155) and Baldwin Park Elementary ($12,142), suggesting that funding is not the primary issue. Nearby Arbor Ridge K-8, with a similar socioeconomic profile, ranks in the 80th percentile (4 stars), proving that strong outcomes are achievable in this area. For parents, the key takeaway is that Aloma faces significant hurdles with attendance and upper-grade performance, but its science program and resource allocation offer potential areas for improvement.
