Summary

Osteen Elementary School is a mid-sized elementary school in the rural community of Osteen, FL, serving 523 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade as part of the Volusia County School District.

Osteen Elementary stands out as the highest-performing school among its nearby Volusia County neighbors, ranking in the 68th percentile statewide for the 2025-2026 school year. This is notably higher than nearby schools like Enterprise Elementary (52nd percentile) and Deltona Lakes Elementary (49th percentile). A standout metric is 4th-grade math, where 88% of students are proficient—22 points above the district average and 23 points above the state average. The school also excels in 5th-grade science, with 68% proficiency, tied for the highest among local comparison schools. Interestingly, Osteen achieves these results while spending the least per student ($10,334) among all nearby schools in both Volusia and Seminole counties, suggesting efficient use of resources. The school also has the lowest rate of economic disadvantage in the area, with about half of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Osteen has shown remarkable resilience, bouncing back from a dip to the 49th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 68th percentile the following year. However, chronic absenteeism remains a challenge, with 27.7% of students missing 10% or more of the school year—though this is better than the district average of 34.1%. When compared to top-tier Seminole County schools like Hamilton Elementary, Osteen holds its own in some areas (like 4th-grade math) but faces a competitive gap in others, such as 3rd-grade English Language Arts (66% vs. 77%). Overall, Osteen Elementary is a strong, efficient school that delivers solid academic results for its community.

What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, October 27, 2010

Security of this school is questionable, let's just say that due to an employee tyring to take the law into her own hands and calling an out of state parent in attempt to have the children "snatched" by that parent after local Sheriff's Deputies told the employee that the Mother had custody of the children, and the man she was giving the information was not even the children's legal biological father. But she continued to the point that she was calling the man on her personal cell phone after the Deputies informed that the Mother was the only costidian. We had to remove the children for their safety. Scary! Close Quote
