Summary

Fivay High School in Hudson, FL, is a large public school serving 1,554 students in grades 8 through 12 within the Pasco district, where nearly 60% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The most critical issue facing the school is a severe chronic absenteeism crisis: in the 2023-2024 school year, 58% of students were chronically absent, which is nearly double the rate at nearby Hudson High School (40.5%) and River Ridge High School (38.8%), and over five times the rate at the high-performing Angeline Academy of Innovation (11%). This absenteeism is a primary driver of low academic proficiency, with Fivay scoring the lowest among traditional area high schools in key subjects like Algebra 1 (21% proficient) and 9th grade ELA (49% proficient), compared to River Ridge's 44% and 63% respectively.

Despite these challenges, there are some positive signs. Fivay's graduation rate has improved from 79.3% in 2021-2022 to 89.1% in 2024-2025, though it remains the lowest among traditional peers like Hudson and River Ridge, which both achieved 99.7%. The school shows relative strength in US History (63% proficient) and Biology (61% proficient), scores that are much closer to neighboring schools like Gulf High School (64% in Biology) than its math and ELA results. This suggests that specific instructional strategies in these departments may be more effective and could serve as a model for improvement elsewhere.

Fivay's performance stands in stark contrast to area magnet and choice schools, such as Angeline Academy of Innovation (5-star, 92nd percentile) and Wendell Krinn Technical High School (4-star, 80th percentile), which have much lower rates of free/reduced lunch (13.6% and 37.5% respectively). Notably, Fivay's per-student spending ($9,748) is in the middle of the pack for its peer group, indicating that funding is not the primary issue. The school's most critical priority must be to aggressively tackle chronic absenteeism, as this foundational issue prevents students from being present to learn and succeed.

great sports program! The coach makes sure the students have enough time to exercise and study! Study hall is provided for all children but i love the idea that there is "no excuse" on doing bad in there grades! If they have anything less than a 2.0 "NO SPORTS" thats awsome! Most schools will find a way for a child to play or not give study hall during "sports"time! Close Quote
