Summary

Citrus Ridge A Civics Academy is an elementary and middle school located in Davenport, Florida, serving grades PK-8 with an enrollment of 1,347 students. The school is part of the Polk County School District, which is ranked 61 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Citrus Ridge A Civics Academy faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, below-average test scores in English Language Arts and Math compared to the state averages, and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. However, the school performs relatively well on the Civics End-of-Course exam, as well as the Algebra 1 and Geometry End-of-Course exams, often exceeding the Polk County and state averages in these areas. When compared to nearby schools, such as Celebration K-8 and Davenport School Of The Arts, Citrus Ridge A Civics Academy generally performs worse on standardized tests and has higher chronic absenteeism rates.

Overall, Citrus Ridge A Civics Academy appears to be a struggling school that could benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve student achievement and engagement. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate should be a priority, as it likely contributes to the school's lower test scores. The school's strong performance on Civics and End-of-Course exams in Algebra and Geometry suggests that it may have some areas of strength that could be leveraged to improve overall academic outcomes.
