Summary

Pinellas Park High School in Largo, FL, is a large public high school serving 1,691 students in grades 9-12 within the Pinellas County School District, where nearly half of the students (47%) qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school presents a mixed picture for parents. A major concern is its persistent struggle with math, where proficiency rates in Algebra 1 (41%) and Geometry (38%) are the lowest among nearby traditional high schools like Clearwater High School and Largo High School. This challenge is likely tied to a critically high chronic absenteeism rate of 43%, which is far above the district average and can severely impact learning in subjects like math that build on prior lessons. On a more positive note, the school shines in Biology, with a 73% proficiency rate that is the highest among its peer group and nearly matches state averages. The school also boasts a strong and stable graduation rate of 94%, consistently exceeding both district and state figures for the past five years.

Interestingly, the school’s spending per student ($9,675) is higher than some higher-performing peers, suggesting the issue isn't a lack of funds but likely how resources are used. For a powerful comparison, look at Osceola Fundamental High, just 3.3 miles away, which has a much lower absenteeism rate (20%) and significantly higher test scores. While math is a clear area for improvement, Pinellas Park shows a positive upward trend in English Language Arts, with 9th-grade proficiency rising from 37% to 49% over the last few years, offering a foundation to build upon.
