Westside Elementary is a Volusia County public PK–5 school in northwest Daytona Beach, serving the Westside and Midtown neighborhoods with a GreatSchools 4/10 rating and standout community programs including the Night Alive after-school initiative.

Westside Elementary anchors the Westside and Midtown neighborhoods of northwest Daytona Beach, west of Nova Road and roughly 3 miles inland from the coast. Built in 1966 to serve the growing west-side population, the campus has expanded several times and today serves Pre-K through 5th grade. The school sits in one of Daytona Beach's most affordable residential corridors — a realistic entry point for families who want homeownership within a short drive of the beach without the price premiums of Ormond Beach or Port Orange.

Frequently asked about Westside Elementary School

What neighborhoods are zoned for Westside Elementary?

The attendance zone covers northwest and midtown Daytona Beach — generally the area west of Nova Road in the 32117 ZIP code, including the Westside neighborhood and parts of Midtown. Some new-construction communities along the LPGA Blvd corridor, including Birchwood by D.R. Horton, also feed Westside. Address-level verification is at ww2.volusia.k12.fl.us/zoning/zoning.asp — Volusia County rezoned several schools in 2023–25, so check before making an offer.

How do I enroll at Westside Elementary?

Westside is a zoned neighborhood school — if your address falls in the attendance boundary, your child is automatically enrolled. Contact the school at (386) 274-3400 ext. 52455 (Ms. Daytona Agerton) to schedule a registration appointment. Bring proof of address, immunization records, and prior school records. For address-specific zone confirmation before you buy, use the Volusia County zoning lookup at ww2.volusia.k12.fl.us/zoning/zoning.asp.

What is the median home price zoned for Westside Elementary?

Homes in the Westside Elementary zone are among the most affordable in Volusia County — typically $150,000 to $260,000 for single-family, with new-construction communities like Birchwood by D.R. Horton coming in at the higher end of that range. This corridor runs well below the broader Daytona Beach median of ~$320K, which makes it an entry-point market for first-time buyers who want Volusia County homeownership without the premium pricing of beachside or Port Orange zip codes.

Is Westside Elementary safe?

Westside Elementary has standard Volusia County security protocols — controlled campus access during school hours and staff supervision. The surrounding Westside neighborhood is an established working-class residential area west of Nova Road; it is not Daytona Beach's beach corridor or downtown entertainment entertainment district. Like any urban school, the campus environment varies. The school's active Peer Mediation program and Night Alive after-school programming reflect an administration that takes student culture seriously. As always, visiting the school before enrolling gives the clearest picture.

How does Westside Elementary compare to Beachside Elementary or Turie T. Small?

Westside, Beachside, and Turie T. Small are all Volusia County elementary schools in the Daytona Beach area. Beachside Elementary serves the east-side and coastal neighborhoods; it received higher GreatSchools scores in recent years. Turie T. Small is closer to midtown. For buyers, which school you get is determined by address — not choice — so the more useful question is which specific address you are considering and what zone it falls in. Ben can help you filter active listings by school zone if that's a priority.
