About Schools in Crawfordville, Florida
Crawfordville's public school system spans 9 ranked schools, with the mix weighted toward elementary options. Parents choosing where to enroll face a meaningful performance spread — scores range from the low 6s to an 8.2 at the top end, making school selection more consequential here than in cities where ratings cluster higher across the board.
The 9 schools average 6.5 out of 10. Only 2 schools — 22% of the total — score 7.0 or above, so the above-average tier is narrow. That concentration matters: families who land in a top-tier attendance zone get a meaningfully different experience than families zoned to average options, and the data makes that gap legible before you sign a lease.
Riversink Elementary leads the city at 8.2, the strongest score among all ranked schools and a clear outlier at the top. Shadeville Elementary follows at 7.2, the only other school above the 7.0 mark. Medart Elementary (6.9) sits just short of that threshold — close to Shadeville in raw score, but still in a different performance tier. Crawfordville Elementary scores 6.3, placing it below the city average of 6.5. Wakulla Institute, rated 6.6, rounds out the top five ranked options.
For parents researching here, the practical move is to confirm attendance zones before committing to a neighborhood. Riversink and Shadeville are the two schools that clear the above-average line, and at just 22% of schools meeting that standard, spots in those zones are genuinely limited. Families zoned to mid-range schools should ask the district directly about open enrollment options. The elementary-heavy makeup of the rankings is also worth noting — parents of middle and high schoolers will need to look beyond Crawfordville's current ranked pool when evaluating the full K–12 picture.
