Parkway Elementary School

Parkway Elementary School in Port St. Lucie received an A for 2025-26 on 65 percent of possible points, following A grades in 2025 and 2024.

Florida's grades file, dated as of September 1, 2026, lists the Selvitz Road school as number 0311 of the St. Lucie district (56), coded 01 for elementary, with 520 total points across 8 components and 97 percent of eligible students tested (FLDOE 2025-26 grades file, Parkway row). The same row shows Grade 2026 A, Grade 2025 A and Grade 2024 A.

For an elementary school the file's scale note puts the A line at 62% of points or greater and the B range at 54% to 61% (FLDOE scale note in the grades file), and Parkway's 65 sits in that A range.

The Parkway line opens with D letters for 1999 and 2000, shows A for 2009 through 2012, holds C and D letters in the 2014 through 2022 columns and reads A for 2024, 2025 and 2026.

The letters below are copied cell by cell from the Selvitz Road school's entry in the state file; its 2021 cell is blank and the file has no 2020 column (FLDOE 2025-26 grades file, Parkway row). The file marks 2015 and 2023 as informational baseline grades rather than regular grades.

A post dated July 9, 2025 on the school's home page celebrated the result, announcing that Parkway earned an A rating once again for the 2024 to 2025 school year (Parkway Elementary website). The 2026 column of the Port St. Lucie row shows that the letter held for the following year as well (FLDOE 2025-26 grades file, Parkway row).

Parkway Elementary sits at 7000 NW Selvitz Road, Port St. Lucie, FL 34983, at the corner of Selvitz Road and Manville Road, which the Census geocoder assigns to Port St. Lucie city.

The Census Bureau geocoder matched the street as 7000 NW SELVITZ RD, PORT ST LUCIE, FL, 34983 and, on its Incorporated Places layer, returned Port St. Lucie city with GEOID 1258715 (Census geocoder match, 7000 NW Selvitz Rd). The district profile lists the phone as (772) 340-4800 and the fax as (772) 340-4807 (Parkway Elementary district profile).

Directions on the school website start from Fort Pierce: travel south on 25th/St. James Road, turn west onto Manville Road, the first street after the Publix plaza, and continue to Selvitz Road, where Parkway stands at the corner (Parkway Elementary website). Drivers from south Port St. Lucie head north on St. James Road and take the same westward turn onto Manville.

The profile places Parkway in the Green zone and Board District 3 (Parkway Elementary district profile). Student Assignment puts the Green Zone north of Midway Road; Midway Road and Florida's Turnpike are the lines that split the district's elementary and middle schools into zones (Student Assignment, St. Lucie Public Schools).

Parkway serves prekindergarten through grade 5, with 553 students counted by NCES for 2024-25 and a capacity of 765 on the district profile.

The federal school search lists parkway elementary school with 553 students and grades PK-5, taking enrollment from official 2024-2025 school data (NCES public school search, Parkway). The Port St. Lucie school's district profile agrees on the span, giving grades as PreK-5 (Parkway Elementary district profile).

For a VPK seat in a prekindergarten class like Parkway's, section 1002.53 makes each child living in Florida who turns 4 on or before September 1 eligible for that school year or the following one (section 1002.53, Florida Statutes). The district age chart sets the same 4 years old by September 1 line for VPK (Student Assignment, St. Lucie Public Schools).

Parkway's entry in the state file reads YES for Title I, NO for charter school and 100 for the economically disadvantaged percentage (FLDOE 2025-26 grades file, Parkway row). The profile lists the Pirate as mascot, with red and black as school colors (Parkway Elementary district profile).

The district profile's welcome message names accelerated math courses, Odyssey of the Mind, and family engagement through a PTO, a School Advisory Council and curriculum nights at Parkway.

That message lists rigorous core instruction in reading, math, science and social studies, then adds the accelerated math courses, Odyssey of the Mind, PTO, SAC and curriculum nights (Parkway Elementary district profile). The Port St. Lucie school's website links a bell schedule, the dress code, school supply lists and a Net Smart Kidz page on internet safety for children (Parkway Elementary website).

Parkway, like every Florida public school, must offer at least the ACCEL options in section 1002.3105: whole-grade and midyear promotion, subject-matter acceleration, virtual instruction in higher grade level subjects and the Credit Acceleration Program, with the principal setting eligibility and a process through which a parent may request whole-grade promotion, midyear promotion or subject-matter acceleration (section 1002.3105, Florida Statutes).

Parkway holds classes from 8:30 a.m. until 3:00 p.m., and new students are placed through the district's Student Assignment office, (772) 429-3930.

The profile gives the 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. hours and adds links to the Safe Routes to School PDF, Parkway's improvement plan and its grade and testing results (Parkway Elementary district profile). The site's own bell schedule page is linked from its menu (Parkway Elementary website).

The district describes regional zones instead of neighborhood schools: a family applies for a school in its zone, with preference given to siblings of current students and to families living within two miles of a school, then completes registration once assigned (Student Assignment, St. Lucie Public Schools). A Parkway kindergartner must turn 5 by September 1 under the district chart, which allows no early entrance.

The St. Lucie Public Schools central office on Brandywine Lane (number 9461, Port St. Lucie) answers at (772) 429-3600 (Parkway Elementary district profile).
