Northport K-8 School, Port St. Lucie

Northport K-8 School in Port St. Lucie holds a C for 2025-26, with 56 percent of total possible points on the scale Florida uses for combination schools.

NORTHPORT K-8 SCHOOL is school 0261 in district 56 in the Florida Department of Education's 2025-26 grades file, and its Grade 2026 cell reads C while its Grade 2025 cell reads B (FLDOE grades file, Northport row). The Northport row lists 561 Total Points Earned from 10 Total Components and 98 in Percent Tested.

Northport's School Type cell reads 04, which the file's legend defines as Combination. For high and combination schools the file's note sets the C band at 45% to 59% of points, the B band at 60% to 64% and the A band at 65% or more (combination school scale, FLDOE).

Under section 1008.34, a C signals satisfactory progress and a B above average progress, so the Northport row moved from the second wording to the first between the Grade 2025 and Grade 2026 columns (Fla. Stat. section 1008.34).

The Northport row reads NO under Charter School, YES under Title I and 78.1 under Percent of Economically Disadvantaged Students. On the FLDOE roster of 2024-25 Title I schools, NORTHPORT K-8 SCHOOL is typed Combination Elementary and Secondary, with 1,190 total students ages 5 to 17 and 960 children from low-income families, printed as 80.67% (2024-25 Title I roster, FLDOE).

The Northport row holds values in ten component columns, Social Studies Achievement and Middle School Acceleration among them, as well as Grade 3 English Language Arts Achievement.

Section 1008.34 adds a social studies achievement measure and, for schools with middle grades 6 through 8, a middle school acceleration measure built on high school end-of-course exam passes and national industry certifications from the CAPE funding list (Fla. Stat. section 1008.34). It also scores, for any school that includes grade 3, the share of eligible students reaching level 3 or above on the grade 3 English Language Arts test. On the Northport row those measures read 69 for Social Studies Achievement, 62 for Middle School Acceleration and 53 for Grade 3 English Language Arts Achievement.

On the same Northport row, Total Points Earned reads 561 and Percent of Total Possible Points reads 56 (FLDOE grades file, Northport row). The Graduation Rate and College and Career Acceleration columns are blank for the Port St. Lucie school, which stops at grade 8.

The district profile for Northport links School Grade and Testing Results, a School Improvement Plan and DOE Publications and Guides for a fuller account of these numbers (Northport K-8 profile).

Northport's row shows B in every column from Grade 2008 through Grade 2011, a D in Grade 2013, B in Grade 2017 through Grade 2019, and B for 2025 between C cells for 2024 and 2026.

The file holds no 2020 column, prints nothing in the Northport Grade 2021 cell, and marks its 2023 and 2015 columns as Informational Baseline Grade, both C for this campus (FLDOE grades file, Northport row).

The cut points behind Northport's letters can be adjusted from one year to the next. Section 1008.34 has the State Board raise every letter's minimum percentage, to the next figure ending in 5 or 0, whenever 75 percent or more of one school type, combination schools included, earn an A or B (Fla. Stat. section 1008.34).
