Summary:

In zip code 34788, there is one elementary school, Treadway Elementary School, serving grades PK through 5 in Leesburg, Florida, with 836 students enrolled.

Treadway Elementary School is a school on a clear upward trajectory, having improved its state ranking from the 48th percentile (2 stars) in 2023-2024 to the 58th percentile (3 stars) in 2025-2026. This consistent progress is a strong indicator of positive momentum. The school's standout strength is mathematics, where it outperformed both the Lake district and state averages in every grade tested for the 2025-2026 school year. Notably, 4th-grade math proficiency reached an impressive 80%, significantly exceeding the district and state averages of 65%. However, English Language Arts (ELA) presents a challenge, particularly in 3rd grade where only 52% of students were proficient, compared to 62% for the district and 60% for the state. The school also shows a divergent performance in 5th grade, with strong science (66%) and math (62%) scores but slightly below-average ELA (60%).

With 57.18% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch, Treadway Elementary serves a moderately high-needs population. Its per-student spending of $12,250 and a student-teacher ratio of 15.2 provide context for its resource allocation. Chronic absenteeism, at 32.3%, is slightly above the state average of 31.4% but notably lower than the Lake district average of 37.7%, suggesting the school manages attendance challenges more effectively than many peers. Overall, Treadway Elementary is a school with a strong math program and a positive trend, but with clear opportunities to improve early literacy and 5th-grade reading skills.
