Windmill Point Elementary, Port St. Lucie

Windmill Point Elementary in Port St. Lucie received a B in Florida's 2025-26 school grades, with 59 percent of the points available to it.

In the state workbook dated as of September 1, 2026, WINDMILL POINT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL appears as school 0271 in district 56, St. Lucie, with B in its Grade 2026 cell (FLDOE 2025-26 school grades workbook). On that Windmill Point row the Total Points Earned cell reads 469, Total Components reads 8 and Percent Tested reads 98.

Windmill Point is scored on the elementary scale because its School Type cell holds 01, which the legend defines as Elementary. The note at the top of the workbook puts the B band for elementary schools at 54% to 61% of points and begins the A band at 62% (FLDOE grading scale note).

Section 1008.34 of the Florida Statutes gives each letter a short meaning, and for the B that Windmill Point received the wording is a school making above average progress; the C band is described as satisfactory progress (section 1008.34, Florida Statutes). That section also sets a testing floor of 95 percent of eligible students for each graded school, and the Port St. Lucie campus reported 98.

Three more cells describe the Windmill Point campus: Charter School reads NO, Title I reads YES and Percent of Economically Disadvantaged Students reads 68.9 (FLDOE workbook flags). A separate state list of 2024-25 Title I schools prints WINDMILL POINT ELEM SCHOOL with 976 total students ages 5 to 17, 735 children from low-income families and a percentage of 75.31% (FLDOE 2024-25 Title I school list).

The Windmill Point row reads 64 for English Language Arts Learning Gains of the Lowest 25% and 54 for Mathematics Learning Gains of the Lowest 25%.

The table copies the scored cells and the summary cells of the Windmill Point row, under the column names the state prints (FLDOE 2025-26 school grades workbook).

Under section 1008.34, the achievement columns count the percentage of eligible students who pass the statewide tests in a subject, and the learning gains columns count the percentage who make gains; the two lowest 25 percent columns follow the students identified by prior year results (section 1008.34, Florida Statutes). For Windmill Point, that puts 59 in English Language Arts Achievement beside 59 in English Language Arts Learning Gains.

Nothing is printed on the Windmill Point row under the social studies, acceleration, graduation and career columns, and the district profile lists the campus for grades PreK-5 (St. Lucie Public Schools profile for Windmill Point). The profile links a School Grade and Testing Results page and a School Improvement Plan, and the school website also lists a School Improvement Plan among its parent links (Windmill Point Elementary website).

The Windmill Point row prints A in every column from Grade 2006 through Grade 2010, D in the Grade 2013 and Grade 1999 columns, and B in the Grade 2024, Grade 2025 and Grade 2026 columns.

The workbook has no 2020 column at all, the Grade 2021 cell is empty for Windmill Point, and the 2023 and 2015 columns carry the label Informational Baseline Grade, with C printed in both for the Port St. Lucie school (FLDOE 2025-26 school grades workbook).

Letters in older Windmill Point columns were set against the thresholds of their own year. Section 1008.34 tells the State Board to reset the minimum percentage for each letter upward, to the next number ending in 5 or 0, in any year when A and B schools make up at least 75 percent of all graded schools in a single school type (section 1008.34, Florida Statutes).

Windmill Point Elementary is at 700 SW Darwin Boulevard, Port St. Lucie, FL 34953, an address that sits within the incorporated city on a fresh Census geocoder lookup.

The geocoder matched the address as 700 SW DARWIN BLVD, PORT ST LUCIE, FL, 34953 and returned Port St. Lucie city, GEOID 1258715, in its Incorporated Places layer (Census geocoder result for 700 SW Darwin Blvd). The school website gives the same street as 700 SW Darwin Boulevard with phone 772-336-6950 and fax 772-336-6962 (Windmill Point Elementary website).

On the district profile the street is written 700 Darwin Blvd., and the General Information block lists Zone Red, Board District 2, Capacity 1206, Mascot Wildcat and Colors Blue and Gold for Windmill Point (district profile). Directions and a Safe Routes to School PDF are linked from that same profile.

The federal Common Core of Data search lists windmill point elementary school at 700 SW DARWIN BLVD, PORT ST LUCIE, FL 34953 with 1,056 students in grades PK-5 (NCES public school search, Port St. Lucie, page 3). NCES marks its student column as data from 2024-2025, while the capacity of 1206 is the district's own figure, so the two describe different things for the Port St. Lucie campus.

Windmill Point seats are assigned through the St. Lucie Public Schools Student Assignment office, and the school belongs to the Red Zone, defined as south of Midway Road and west of Florida's Turnpike.

The district explains that it uses regional zones rather than neighborhood schools, with preference for families who have siblings already at a school or who live within two miles of it, so that the district does not have to redistrict when an area such as Port St. Lucie grows past a school's capacity (Student Assignment, St. Lucie Public Schools). Assignment is a two step process: an online application for the zone or another choice option, followed by registration at the school once a seat at Windmill Point or elsewhere is assigned. The office answers at (772) 429-3930.

For a Windmill Point kindergartner, the Student Assignment page sets the age line at 5 years old on or before September 1 and states that there is no early entrance; registration also requires a physical dated within 12 months and the DH680 Florida Certificate of Immunization (Student Assignment age and registration rules).

Prekindergarten at Port St. Lucie campuses runs through the district's Early Childhood department, which sets VPK eligibility at 4 years old on or before September 1 and says seats in the VPK and Title I program are limited and decided by risk levels from a screener and a family questionnaire (Early Childhood, St. Lucie Public Schools). Windmill Point appears under the Red Zone heading in that department's list of Summer 2026 VPK Summer Program school sites.

Florida law gives Windmill Point families some timing room: section 1002.53 lets a Florida child who turns 4 by September 1 use the free prekindergarten program in that school year or in the year after, and eligibility lasts until the child is admitted to kindergarten (section 1002.53, Florida Statutes). The Windmill Point website has a Pre-Kindergarten/VPK page among its staff menus (Windmill Point Elementary website).

Windmill Point Elementary runs from 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., the hours printed on both the district profile and the school website.

A Windmill Point post dated August 7, 2025 said the 2025-2026 school year started a new bus registration process in which each child must be registered every year, and it pointed families to the Here Comes the Bus app (Windmill Point Elementary website). A post dated August 8, 2025 linked a dismissal procedures map for the Port St. Lucie campus.

The district Transportation page gives the code 77914 for adding a student in Here Comes the Bus and lists two bus compounds; the South Transportation Complex is at 325 N.W. Commerce Park Dr., Port St. Lucie, 34986, and both answer at (772) 204-RIDE (7433) (Transportation, St. Lucie Public Schools). The same page names the two bus compounds South County and North County, and Port St. Lucie riders bound for Windmill Point can follow a bus in real time once the code is entered.

Meal news on the Windmill Point site is dated: an August 7, 2025 post said breakfast was free for all students that school year and linked the MealViewer menu, adding reasons to fill out a meal application (Windmill Point news). Families checking the current year use the district's meal application and lunch menu links instead of that post.
