Summary

Wekiva Elementary School in Longwood, FL, is a high-performing school within the top-ranked Seminole County School District, serving 800 students in grades PK through 5 with a strong history of academic excellence and a notably low chronic absenteeism rate of just 14.6%.

This school consistently ranks in the top 20% of Florida elementary schools, and its 5th graders shine in science, with 80% achieving proficiency—well above the state average of 60%. However, there is one key area of concern: a persistent "5th grade math slump." Only 47% of 5th graders were proficient in math, which is below both the district and state averages. This is a multi-year trend that sets Wekiva apart from its top-performing neighbor, Sabal Point Elementary School, which achieves even higher overall scores with a similar student population. Interestingly, Wekiva spends less per student ($10,019) than many nearby schools yet delivers better results, suggesting efficient resource use.

For parents, Wekiva offers a supportive community with engaged families and excellent early literacy and science programs. The main question to explore is how the school supports 5th graders in math, as this is the only subject where it underperforms relative to peers. While it is an outstanding choice, families may also want to compare it to Sabal Point Elementary, which is just 1.7 miles away and ranks in the top 5% of the state, particularly if advanced math preparation is a priority.

We moved to Florida because of out gifted daughter.
In KY they did not provide anything special for gifted 2nd graders.
I do not know about the non gifted classes but our experience has been wonderful.
After our 2nd year at Wekiva, I am even more impressed with the school.
Our daughter loves her teachers. The only complaint is the PTA is very un-organized. Close Quote

Purchased a home in the Wekiva area after reading the some of the excellent reviews on this elementary school. My son's kindergarten and 1st grade experience thus far have been deplorable. A complete disappointment. We will be relocating for the 2012/2013 just so that my son does not have to attend this school again. Close Quote
