Summary

Anona Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Largo, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 470 students. The school is part of the Pinellas District, which is ranked 19th out of 67 districts in Florida and is rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. Anona Elementary has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, indicating strong academic performance.

Anona Elementary consistently outperforms the Pinellas District and the state of Florida in various standardized test scores. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Anona's 5th-grade students scored 84% proficient or better in Statewide Science/Science, compared to 67% for Pinellas and 55% for Florida. Similarly, Anona's 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students scored higher than the district and state in FAST English Language Arts and Math assessments. However, Anona Elementary has a higher chronic absenteeism rate compared to the state average, ranging from 20% to 31.4% over the past few years, which is an area of concern that the school may need to address.
