Summary

Harmony Community School is a public elementary school (PK-5) in Harmony, FL, serving 1,048 students and consistently earning a 4-star rating, placing it in the top 25-30% of all Florida elementary schools. As part of the Osceola district, which ranks near the bottom of the state, Harmony stands out as a high-performing outlier, currently ranked 399th out of 2,240 schools (82nd percentile). The school excels in 3rd grade, with 84% proficiency in ELA and 85% in math—28 and 25 points above the district average, respectively—though performance dips slightly in 4th and 5th grades, particularly in 5th-grade math (68%).

Compared to nearby traditional elementary schools, Harmony is the clear leader. For example, Partin Settlement Elementary School and Neptune Elementary School rank in the bottom 30% of the state, while St. Cloud Elementary School (66th percentile) and Narcoossee Elementary School (69th percentile) trail significantly. However, two K-8 schools in the area—Voyager K-8 (89th percentile) and Canoe Creek K-8 (80th percentile)—are direct academic competitors, with Voyager outperforming Harmony in 5th-grade science (82% vs. 64%) and math (87% vs. 68%). Harmony’s focused elementary environment is a strength, but it lacks the advanced middle school course offerings (like Algebra 1) that these K-8 schools provide.

Harmony’s chronic absenteeism rate has risen sharply from 10.7% in 2019-2020 to 23.9% in 2023-2024, a 123% increase that now exceeds rates at Canoe Creek K-8 (14.7%) and St. Cloud Elementary (20.2%). While still better than the district average (34.9%), this trend is a red flag that could erode academic gains. The school also demonstrates high spending efficiency at $10,054 per student, well below the average of nearby schools like Lakeview Elementary School ($13,035) and St. Cloud Elementary ($12,293), suggesting strong resource management. Overall, Harmony is an excellent choice for elementary education, but parents should weigh the rising absenteeism and consider K-8 options for a seamless transition to middle school.

Open Quote Terrible school that allows bullying and treats kids of different color less than, even if they are smart and excelling. Uncaring administration, very one sided and do not follow procedures. My child was called names and pushed around and the minute he stood up for himself it was him doing the bullying but no one cared about the repeated calls, visits and emails to the school about the problem. Principal does not care for students unless you are a favorite or grew up in the area. Close Quote

Open Quote My oldest is a kindergartener this year. I could not have asked for a better school for her to start at. Words cannot express how happy I am with HCS. The teachers are amazing, and administration is fantastic. The facility is beautiful and offers everything a child could need to thive scholastically. I find it really hard to believe there is a better school anywhere, that is how much I am in love with this school. Close Quote
