Summary

Trout Creek Academy is a highly-rated K-8 school in Saint Augustine, FL, serving 1,156 students as part of the top-ranked St. Johns County School District, which holds a 5-star rating and ranks 4th out of 70 districts in Florida.

This school stands out for its exceptional performance on advanced End-of-Course (EOC) exams, achieving near-perfect proficiency rates that far exceed state and district averages. For example, in the 2025-2026 school year, 100% of students were proficient in Geometry, 96% in Algebra 1, and 97% in Civics. This level of achievement is on par with other top K-8 schools in the area, such as Patriot Oaks Academy and Freedom Crossing Academy. Trout Creek also excels in 8th-grade science, with 80% proficiency—the highest among its K-8 peers and well above the district average of 74%. Interestingly, the school achieves these strong results while spending less per student ($8,967) than many nearby schools with similar or lower performance, such as Timberlin Creek Elementary School ($11,651 per student).

One area of note is a dip in 7th-grade math proficiency, where only 59% of students were proficient in 2025-2026, below the district average of 62%. This is a common trend among K-8 schools in the area, including Liberty Pines Academy (75%) and Mill Creek Academy (data not shown), suggesting a broader curriculum challenge at this grade level. Despite this, Trout Creek consistently outperforms Mill Creek Academy in nearly every subject, including 8th-grade ELA (84% vs. 69%) and science (80% vs. 69%). The school also shows positive year-over-year growth in key areas like 8th-grade ELA and 5th-grade science, indicating a trajectory of sustained academic excellence.
