Picolata Crossing Elementary School is a public elementary school in St. Augustine, Florida, serving around 1,000 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the St. Johns School District, which is ranked 5th out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Picolata Crossing Elementary has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years.

Picolata Crossing Elementary stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outperforming the state average in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 69% in 3rd grade ELA, 64% in 4th grade ELA, 66% in 5th grade ELA, 73% in 3rd grade Math, 70% in 4th grade Math, and 63% in 5th grade Math.
