Bryant Elementary School

Bryant Elementary School serves 898 students in pre-kindergarten through fifth grade in Tampa, Florida. It earns a composite score of 9.3 out of 10 — a label of Exceptional — driven by a 9.6 academic score and a 9.4 growth score, meaning students here don't just perform well, they accelerate over time. The student-teacher ratio of 16.6 to 1 keeps classrooms personal enough for that momentum to build.

The numbers put Bryant's performance in rare company. It ranks 2nd out of 161 public schools in Tampa, and 31st out of 3,777 public schools statewide — placing it in the top 1% of all Florida schools. Among Florida elementary schools specifically, it sits 29th out of 2,196, a distinction that holds up whether you're comparing across all grade levels or just elementary peers.

For families weighing options in the Tampa area, Bryant's combination of strong academics and consistent student growth separates it from most alternatives in the city and across the state. It functions as a regular public school — no selective admissions, no magnet lottery required — which makes those results even more meaningful. Parents prioritizing measured, year-over-year academic progress will find few elementary schools in Florida that outperform what Bryant delivers.
