Shingle Creek Elementary is an OCPS PK-5 public school in southwest Orlando's Millennia corridor — the Pandas campus on Harcourt Ave serving the Shingle Creek, Millennia, and Tangelo Park neighborhoods near the tourist district and I-4.

Shingle Creek Elementary sits in one of southwest Orlando's most traffic-central pockets — Harcourt Ave runs parallel to the Millennia mall corridor and sits roughly a mile south of the I-4 / Conroy Road interchange. The school's zone covers a wide swath of west Orlando neighborhoods including Shingle Creek, Millennia, Millennia Gardens, parts of Tangelo Park, and the Sadler area. It is a Title I school with a majority-Black and Hispanic student body, reflecting the community it serves. Principal Dr. Farah Henderson has led the school in recent years. Multilingual family communications in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole reflect the zone's linguistic diversity.

How to enroll

Automatic enrollment via Orange County Public Schools for families in the attendance zone. Confirm your specific address at ocps.net/find-my-school before making an offer — the Shingle Creek zone is a large, irregular boundary that does not always align with ZIP code or neighborhood name. OCPS Student Enrollment: 407-317-3233.

What makes it stand out

The school offers a Gifted & Talented pull-out program and multilingual family support in three languages — a practical differentiator in a zone where a significant share of families are non-native English speakers. Before and after school care (6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.) runs on-campus through the Dramatic Education partnership, which matters for working parents in a zone with limited private childcare options.

Frequently asked about Shingle Creek Elementary School

What neighborhoods are zoned for Shingle Creek Elementary?

The Shingle Creek Elementary attendance zone covers a wide corridor in southwest Orlando — including the Shingle Creek, Millennia, Millennia Gardens, parts of Tangelo Park, and the Sadler area. The boundary runs roughly from the Millennia mall area south toward Oak Ridge Road and east toward the I-4 corridor. Because the zone is large and irregular, the only reliable way to confirm a specific address is through OCPS's Find My School tool at ocps.net. Always verify before making an offer — adjacent streets can feed different schools.

How do I enroll my child at Shingle Creek Elementary?

Enrollment is automatic for families zoned to Shingle Creek. Contact OCPS Student Enrollment at 407-317-3233 or use the portal at ocps.net to start the process. You'll need proof of address and standard OCPS enrollment documents. For the Gifted & Talented program, your child must be referred and tested separately — talk to the school counselor after enrollment. Before and after school care (Dramatic Education) is a paid add-on through the school office.

What is the median home price in the Shingle Creek Elementary zone?

Homes in the 32839 ZIP — which covers most of the Shingle Creek attendance zone — have a median sale price around $255,000 (March 2026 Redfin data), making it one of the more affordable entry points in Orange County. Single-family homes in the Shingle Creek and Millennia neighborhoods typically run 3 bedrooms. The area is dense with apartments and condos as well, which pull the median lower. For a zone-filtered search of homes actually for sale, ask Ben for a current list.

Is Shingle Creek Elementary a safe school in a safe neighborhood?

The school operates with standard OCPS security: controlled campus access, front-office sign-in required for all visitors, and an assigned School Resource Officer. The surrounding Millennia and Shingle Creek neighborhoods are active, mixed-use areas near the tourist corridor — crime rates are higher than Orange County suburbs like Windermere or Dr. Phillips, which is part of why homes in this zone are priced well below the metro median. The school itself is a supervised environment; the zone's character varies significantly by block and specific address.

How does Shingle Creek Elementary compare to Millennia Elementary nearby?

Both serve the Millennia corridor, but their attendance zones are distinct — Shingle Creek's zone runs farther south and west, while Millennia Elementary covers the neighborhoods closer to the mall's northern approach. Both are OCPS public elementaries, both are Title I schools, and both feed into the southwest Orlando middle/high school chain. If you're choosing between two homes near the Millennia corridor, the zone each address falls into may differ. Use ocps.net/find-my-school with the exact street address — don't assume based on subdivision name or ZIP code.
