This school stands out for its exceptional 5th-grade math performance, with 77% of students proficient—12 points higher than the district average and 15 points higher than the state average. This strength has been consistent for three consecutive years. The school also excels in 5th-grade science, with 66% of students proficient compared to 59% for the district and 60% for the state. Notably, Holley-Navarre Intermediate achieves these results with the lowest per-student spending ($9,279) among nearby schools, including West Navarre Intermediate ($10,424) and Oriole Beach Elementary ($10,793), suggesting efficient resource use. The school also has remarkably low chronic absenteeism at just 10%, half the district rate and a third of the state rate, and significantly lower than its feeder schools Holley-Navarre Primary (19.5%) and West Navarre Primary (20.7%).

However, the school's statewide ranking percentile dropped to the 62nd percentile in the most recent year, its lowest in over a decade, after consistently ranking in the 78th-86th percentile. Additionally, while 5th-grade math is a standout, 3rd and 4th-grade math scores (67% and 62%) fall below the district average, creating a "V-shaped" recovery pattern that suggests strong progress between 4th and 5th grade. Compared to nearby Okaloosa district schools like Annette P. Edwins Elementary and Wright Elementary, which serve higher-poverty populations and have lower academic performance, Holley-Navarre Intermediate achieves strong results while serving a more economically diverse student body than its immediate Santa Rosa peers.

Open Quote 1) The intermediate (last year) changed their grading policy which is outrageous and unfair. For example at the Intermediate School the Major Grade (test) is 66% of the grade and Intermediate Grade (Quiz) is 34% of the grade, and there is no other grade for home works, classwork, etc. In my opinion this grading system is setting a child up for failure because if a child does not do well on a test it lowers their average grade significantly. I assume the Intermediate School is trying to mirror the Middle School, but the truth is that they are not. If the Intermediate school took the time to look at the Middle School's grading system they would see that the percentage scale for grades are tailored to help and not hinder the student. In the Middle School home works, projects and classwork counts towards a grade, so they actually give the student opportunities for the student to do well. In addition, the percentage grade scale at the Middle School are lower in each category. For example, the Major grade (test)45%, Intermediate Grade (quiz) 30%, and Minor Grade (homework, classwork, or projects)is 25%. Those percentages are not so high and are evenly spread out, so if a child does not do well on a test grade it will not cripple the child's overall average.

2) I have two boys who have attended Holley Navarre Intermediate and this school in the last two years has gotten worst. Since the common core has been in place the teachers are teaching differently the curriculum. There is no consistency. I have spoken with other parents and I have noticed that some teachers use the Reading textbook to give exams and others use only a few stories from the textbook and other stories from printout reading (cold reads), so if a student was switch from one teacher to another that student could get confused, or behind on his reading, or simply not inline with the other students. In addition, if a teacher does not use the textbook curriculum on exams then the parent will not be able to use the school's textbook as a resource to assist a child who is having difficulties, or to help them to study before an exam. In the Middle School all the exams in class are tailored to address information in the textbook. Close Quote
