Summary

Oakhurst Elementary School in Largo, FL, serves 677 students in grades PK through 5 and is a consistently high-performing school within the Pinellas district, earning a 4-star rating for the past decade.

Oakhurst stands out for its exceptional science performance, with 83% of 5th graders proficient—23 points above the state average—and remarkably low chronic absenteeism at just 14.5%, which is less than half the district and state averages. This strong attendance rate is a key differentiator from nearby schools like Mildred Helms Elementary School (absenteeism around 30%) and Fuguitt Elementary School (absenteeism around 35%). The school also maintains consistent math proficiency across all grades, with rates between 73% and 80%, unlike some peers such as Starkey Elementary School which sees a sharper drop in 5th grade. While Oakhurst is a strong school, it is outperformed in every subject by the elite Orange Grove Elementary School, located just 3.78 miles away, which achieves even higher scores with a similar economic profile.

One area for potential focus is 3rd-grade English Language Arts (ELA), where only 64% of students were proficient, below the district average of 68%. This contrasts with its stronger 4th and 5th-grade ELA scores of 72%. Overall, Oakhurst delivers excellent results with notable efficiency, spending $12,853 per student—significantly less than the nearby Bauder Elementary School ($17,524 per student)—while maintaining a highly engaged student body and a strong academic track record.
