Summary

Creative Inspiration Journey School Of St Cloud is a public charter elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Saint Cloud, Florida, with 590 students. The school is part of the Osceola school district, which is ranked 57th out of 67 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The data suggests that Creative Inspiration Journey School Of St Cloud is struggling to provide a high-quality education for its students. The school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.3% to 34.9%, which is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby schools in the Osceola district. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally below the Osceola district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math 5-10 percentage points lower than the district and state averages. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, this does not seem to translate into better academic outcomes for the students.

Interestingly, the school's funding and resource allocation may be contributing factors to its underperformance. The school's spending per student has fluctuated significantly, from $35,947 in 2021-2022 to $7,602 in 2022-2023. This variability in funding may impact the school's ability to provide consistent resources and support for its students. Additionally, despite being located relatively close to several other elementary schools in the Osceola district, such as Narcoossee Elementary and Canoe Creek K-8, which have higher rankings and 3-4 star ratings, Creative Inspiration Journey School Of St Cloud does not appear to be benefiting from any potential spillover effects or collaboration with these higher-performing institutions.

Open Quote My kids loved this school but due to the fact that my son in VPK was sick so much he missed school alot he was kicked out. So unfair when I sent them doctors notes and they did not even consider it. He was only in VPK! If your child get's sick alot DO NOT GO HERE because they will not enroll them again. When kids get sick it is out of our control. Imagine if my son would of been hospitalized. Taking both of my kids oit Close Quote

Open Quote No curriculum they do a lot of hands on activities. However with no curriculum my sons teacher didn't start phonetics till after halfway point of the year. Kids are allowed to fight with little to no consequences and you may witness this yourself as a volunteer if you still put your kids in that place after reading this. Each student only gets about 20 minutes of personal time and the rest of the time they spend playing in the classroom. This is how the teacher explained it. They spend 20 one on one minutes in each subject they do and activity together usually last between 10 to 15 minutes and the rest of the time they spend playing. There's 25 mandatory volunteer hours per school year. Beware of good reviews they exchange good reviews for up to 3 volunteer hours if I could post the email for you to see I would. Keep your kids out of here they don't even notify you if your kid is hurt by another student and academically they don't keep up. Their ideas are great but they're not being implemented in a constructive and structured way so the children can benefit from them. Close Quote
