Summary

Anclote Elementary School is a public elementary school located in New Port Richey, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 559. The school is part of the Pasco District, which is ranked 40 out of 67 districts in Florida and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Anclote Elementary School faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, significantly lower test scores compared to the Pasco district and the state of Florida, and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. When compared to nearby schools, such as Cotee River Elementary, Plato Academy Trinity Charter, and Trinity Oaks Elementary, Anclote consistently underperforms on test scores and has higher chronic absenteeism rates.

The success of the nearby magnet and charter schools, such as Plato Academy Trinity Charter and Athenian Academy of Technology and the Arts, which outperform Anclote Elementary on various metrics, highlights the potential benefits of school choice and specialized programs. Additionally, the high rates of economic disadvantage in the area suggest that addressing broader socioeconomic factors may be crucial in supporting student success at Anclote Elementary and the surrounding schools.

Open Quote While some of the teacher’s seem to be professional and enjoy their profession, the administration leaves a lot to be desired. This school is poorly run from the top. The front desk is staffed with unprofessional and rude employees. I will be looking for an alternate school for my child. One year was more than enough time to realize my child deserves better.
