Plumosa School Of The Arts generally outperforms the nearby elementary schools in terms of test scores and state rankings. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Plumosa had 94% proficiency in EOC/Civics, while the nearby schools had much lower proficiency rates. This may be due in part to Plumosa's status as a public magnet school, which offers specialized programs or curricula to attract students from across the district. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 64.2% to 79.56% over the past few years, suggesting it serves a relatively disadvantaged population.
