Summary

Avalon Elementary is a K-5 public school in Orlando, FL (32828), serving 553 students within the Orange school district, and it has a long track record of academic excellence, consistently ranking in the top 10% of Florida elementary schools over the past decade. The school stands out for its exceptional and consistent academic performance, with proficiency rates ranging from 72% to 85% in the most recent testing year, well above district and state averages. Math is a clear strength, with 4th-grade math proficiency reaching 85% in 2025-2026, and the school has earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger in seven of the last ten school years.

One of Avalon's most significant differentiators is its remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of just 14.0% in 2023-2024, which is less than half the district rate of 35.2% and the state rate of 31.4%. This is the lowest rate among all comparable nearby schools, including Stone Lakes Elementary (15.1%) and Timber Lakes Elementary (17.2%), indicating a highly engaged student body and strong family-school connections. The school also has a very low poverty rate, with only 19.17% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch in 2024-2025, which is the second-lowest among its peers and significantly lower than schools like Castle Creek Elementary (55.5%) and Camelot Elementary (42.57%).

While Avalon's recent state ranking dipped slightly to the 86th percentile in 2025-2026, it remains a top-tier school with a decade-long history of being in the 91st to 95th percentile, unmatched by nearby schools like Cypress Springs Elementary and Timber Lakes Elementary. The school is located in a cluster of high-performing schools, including Stone Lakes Elementary (83rd percentile) and Timber Lakes Elementary (84th percentile), suggesting a supportive community that values education. Avalon's per-student spending of $12,399 is moderate compared to peers like Sunrise Elementary ($15,359), yet it achieves higher and more consistent rankings, indicating efficient resource allocation.
