Summary

Deltona Lakes Elementary School is a public elementary school in Deltona, Florida, serving 718 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Volusia District, which is ranked 28 out of 67 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Deltona Lakes Elementary has a relatively high per-student spending compared to nearby schools, the school faces some significant challenges. It has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 29.5% to 34.1% over the past few years, which is much higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally below the Volusia district and Florida state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in 5th grade Science (54%), 3rd grade ELA (52%), and 5th grade Math (40%) were all lower than the district and state averages.

Another factor that sets Deltona Lakes Elementary apart is its high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 64.16% to 76.62% over the past few years. This is significantly higher than the nearby schools, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. While the school's investment in per-student spending suggests a commitment to supporting its students, more targeted interventions and support may be needed to improve student outcomes and close the performance gap with the surrounding schools.
