Summary:

The 32502 zip code area in Florida has only one elementary school, Coastal Connections Academy, which is a public charter virtual school serving grades K-5. Based on the available data, Coastal Connections Academy does not appear to be a high-performing school, as its academic metrics, such as test scores and graduation rates, are significantly below the Santa Rosa district and Florida state averages.

Coastal Connections Academy has a 0-star rating and is ranked 2121 out of 2258 Florida elementary schools by SchoolDigger. The school's 4-year graduation rate is 89.7%, which is lower than the state average. Additionally, the school's test scores across all grade levels and subjects are much lower compared to the district and state averages. Coastal Connections Academy also has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.4%, which is concerning and may be contributing to the school's poor academic performance.

Other notable factors about Coastal Connections Academy include its low per-student spending of $7,522, which is below the state average, and its extremely high student-teacher ratio of 52:1, which is significantly higher than the typical recommended ratio. These resource constraints may be hindering the school's ability to provide a quality education to its students. Overall, the data suggests that Coastal Connections Academy is struggling to meet the educational needs of the students in the 32502 zip code area.
