Summary

Port St. Lucie High School is a public high school in Port St. Lucie, Florida, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 1,811. The school is part of the St. Lucie School District, which is ranked 42 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 56.6% to 66.7% in recent years, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, its academic performance has been a concern. Port St. Lucie High School consistently underperforms compared to the district and the state of Florida in various standardized tests, including only 26% proficiency in Algebra 1 EOC in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to 50% for the district and 60% for the state. Additionally, the school has seen a decline in its four-year graduation rates, dropping from 98.3% in 2023-2024 to 88.0% in 2022-2023, which is lower than the district and state averages.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Somerset College Preparatory Academy, a public charter school within the same district, Port St. Lucie High School is underperforming in several key areas. The school's performance, as measured by its statewide ranking and SchoolDigger star rating, has also declined over the years, dropping from a 3-star rating in 2018-2019 to a 2-star rating in recent years. These challenges suggest that the school could benefit from targeted interventions and support to address the areas of concern, such as low test scores, declining graduation rates, and high chronic absenteeism rates, in order to improve the educational experience for its students.
