Best High Schools in Zip Code 32836


Summary:

Zip code 32836 is home to one large public high school, Lake Buena Vista High School, serving grades 9-12 within the Orange County school district.

Lake Buena Vista High School presents a complex picture for parents. On one hand, it boasts an exceptional graduation rate of 98.1%, significantly higher than both the district (92.7%) and state (92.2%) averages. The school has also shown positive momentum, improving its state ranking from the 45th percentile to the 53rd percentile (3 stars) for the 2025-2026 school year. However, this success is sharply contrasted by a severe chronic absenteeism rate of 53.5%, meaning more than half of the student body is missing significant instructional time—a rate far exceeding district and state averages. Academically, performance is inconsistent: the school excels in US History (79% proficient) and performs on par with the state in Biology (75%), but struggles considerably in Algebra 1, where only 35% of students are proficient, well below the district and state average of 63%.

With an enrollment of 2,140 students and a high student-teacher ratio of 24.8:1, the school may offer less individualized attention. The relatively low percentage of students eligible for free/reduced lunch (27.76%) suggests a more affluent student body. The stark paradox between the near-perfect graduation rate and the alarmingly high absenteeism, combined with the weak math scores, suggests that while the school is effective at ensuring students eventually graduate, there are underlying challenges with daily attendance and foundational academic skills that parents should investigate further.
