Florence Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools, with a ranking between 1,788 and 3,694 out of around 4,500 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on STAAR assessments is generally below the state average, with proficiency rates in reading, math, and science lagging behind the Texas average by 10-20 percentage points. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 60% to 69.98% over the past few years. However, the school's spending per student has increased from $9,795 in 2018-2019 to $11,882 in 2020-2021, which is higher than the state average, and the student-teacher ratio has decreased from 16.2 in 2021-2022 to 14.6 in 2023-2024, which is lower than the state average.
