Summary

Savanna Ridge Elementary School in Port St. Lucie, FL, is a PK-5 public school serving 512 students within the St. Lucie district, where it faces notable academic challenges despite higher-than-average per-student spending of $12,705.

The school shows a clear "3rd grade peak, 4th grade cliff" pattern in math. While 70% of 3rd graders were proficient in math in 2025-2026—outperforming both the district (65%) and state (66%) averages—only 38% of 4th graders reached proficiency, far below the district (53%) and state (65%) averages. This suggests foundational math skills are taught well in early grades, but students struggle with more complex concepts in 4th grade. In contrast, nearby schools like Parkway Elementary (56th percentile) and Rivers Edge Elementary (55th percentile) rank higher and show more consistent performance. Chronic absenteeism, while improving from 40.3% in 2021-2022 to 28.6% in 2023-2024, remains a significant concern that likely impacts learning.

Interestingly, the school's overall ranking dropped sharply from the 48th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 27th percentile for 2025-2026, placing it in the bottom third of Florida elementary schools. This decline is not due to lack of funding, as Savanna Ridge spends more per student than higher-performing peers like Rivers Edge ($10,309). The school shares a similar overall ranking with Village Green Environmental Studies School (26th percentile), but their strengths differ—Savanna Ridge excels in 3rd grade math, while Village Green shines in 5th grade ELA and science. For parents, the key takeaway is that Savanna Ridge has pockets of strength, particularly in early math, but needs targeted support in 4th grade math and attendance to improve outcomes.
