Summary

Brooker Creek Elementary School is a high-performing public elementary school in Tarpon Springs, Florida, serving 509 students in grades PK-5. The school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, with strong academic results that outshine the district and state averages.

Brooker Creek Elementary's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science are significantly higher than the Pinellas County and Florida averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd-grade ELA proficiency rate was 92%, compared to 65% for Pinellas County and 57% for the state. However, the school has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.3% in 2021-2022 to 31.4% in 2023-2024, which warrants further investigation and intervention.

Tarpon Springs Fundamental Elementary, a public magnet school, and Cypress Woods Elementary also demonstrate strong academic performance, with results comparable to or exceeding Brooker Creek in some areas.
