The free-lunch share is 21% above the Florida average and 21% above the national baseline. Counselor coverage works out to roughly 469 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 30.5% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Pasco spends $11,709 per pupil district-wide, below the Florida average of $12,756 and below the national average of $19,490.
