Summary

Village Green Environmental Studies School is a public elementary magnet school in Port St. Lucie, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with an enrollment of 597 students. The school faces significant challenges, with consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, lower test scores compared to district and state averages, and a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Village Green's performance, as measured by its statewide school ranking, has declined over the past several years, dropping from 596 out of 2,087 Florida elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 1,567 out of 2,258 in 2024-2025. When compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as Morningside Elementary, Village Green generally performs worse on key metrics like test scores and chronic absenteeism. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Village Green, ranging from 69.12% to 78.39% over the past few years, suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income population, which may contribute to the challenges it faces.

Despite its focus on environmental studies, the data does not provide enough information to evaluate the effectiveness of this curriculum approach. The school's spending per student, ranging from $9,493 to $11,623 over the past few years, is higher than the St. Lucie school district average, but this additional funding has not translated into improved academic performance. Overall, Village Green Environmental Studies School faces significant challenges that will require targeted interventions and support to address the needs of its students and improve educational outcomes.
