Summary

Meadow Woods Elementary is a public PK-5 school in Orlando, FL, serving 571 students within the Orange County school district. The school has faced significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom third of Florida elementary schools over the past decade and currently holding a 1-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year.

Compared to nearby schools within a 2.5-mile radius, Meadow Woods stands out for its persistent underperformance. While neighboring schools like Endeavor Elementary and Stonewyck Elementary consistently earn 3-4 star ratings, Meadow Woods has been stuck at 1-2 stars for nine years. The gap is most visible in test scores: 4th-grade math proficiency is 41% at Meadow Woods, compared to 76% at Endeavor and 72% at Stonewyck. Similarly, 5th-grade English Language Arts scores show Meadow Woods at 44%, while Endeavor reaches 79%. The school also struggles with chronic absenteeism at 34.9%, far higher than Stonewyck's 18.7% and Wetherbee Elementary's 21.5%.

Interestingly, Meadow Woods spends more per student ($14,310) than any nearby Orange County peer, yet achieves the lowest academic outcomes—suggesting that additional funding alone hasn't solved underlying challenges. A bright spot is 3rd-grade math, where the school matches the district and state averages at 67%. However, this success doesn't carry into upper grades. The school's performance is more comparable to struggling schools in the neighboring Osceola County district, such as Boggy Creek Elementary, than to its immediate Orange County neighbors, highlighting a deep achievement gap that parents should carefully consider.
