“Ocoee Elementary School is an Orange County public PK–5 school in central Ocoee — walkable from the older neighborhoods near downtown, with a lower-than-average student-teacher ratio and a Gifted and Talented program.”
Ocoee Elementary sits in central Ocoee, a five-minute walk from the older residential neighborhoods that surround downtown. The school is inside one of the most clearly drawn elementary attendance zones in west Orange County — roughly bounded by Prairie Lake to the north, SR 50 to the south, and the Bluford Avenue corridor to the east. It is one of six OCPS elementary schools serving the Ocoee area, and its enrollment of about 723 students makes it a mid-sized campus by district standards.

Pull a zone-filtered search for current inventory — ask Ben for a curated list of homes inside this boundary.
Is Ocoee Elementary a good school?
GreatSchools rates Ocoee Elementary 5/10 and Niche gives it a B-. The school's math and reading proficiency rates (around 38–42%) run below the OCPS district and Florida state averages, which track closely with the school's higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students (roughly 56% free/reduced lunch eligible). The student-teacher ratio of 16:1 is better than the state average. GreatSchools ratings index heavily on test scores without equity adjustment — they are one data point, not the full picture.
How does Ocoee Elementary compare to other west Orange County elementaries?
Among the six OCPS elementary schools in Ocoee, Westbrooke Elementary ranks highest academically (top 20% of Florida schools). Prairie Lake Elementary recently improved to an A grade. Ocoee Elementary's zone covers the older central-city neighborhoods and carries a different demographic profile than the newer subdivisions served by Westbrooke or Prairie Lake. For buyers who want higher-rated elementaries, the west Ocoee / Windermere corridor offers more options — but homes there also price at a significant premium.
