Summary

Argyle Elementary School in Orange Park, FL, serves 722 students in grades PK-6 and is part of the highly-rated Clay County School District, which ranks in the top 25% of Florida districts. After a recent dip to a 2-star rating, the school has rebounded to a 3-star rating (51st percentile) for the 2025-2026 school year, showing a strong recovery trajectory that contrasts with nearby schools like Plantation Oaks Elementary School, which dropped from the 71st to the 48th percentile over the same period.

Argyle's most remarkable feature is its exceptional 6th-grade performance, with 86% proficiency in English Language Arts (ELA) and 69% in Math—the 86% ELA score far exceeds every nearby school, including Ridgeview Elementary School and Lakeside Elementary School (both at 75%). However, the school shows a "tale of two schools" in math: 4th-grade math is a standout strength at 73% proficiency, outperforming the district (65%), while 5th-grade math at 61% barely matches the district average. Science remains a consistent weakness, with 5th-grade proficiency at 59% in 2025-2026, lagging behind the district's 66% and schools like Oakleaf Village Elementary School (69%).

Despite having the lowest per-student spending among nearby Clay County schools at $10,921—significantly less than W E Cherry Elementary School ($14,600) and Montclair Elementary School ($13,496)—Argyle achieves competitive results, suggesting strong operational efficiency. Chronic absenteeism at 24.8% is better than the state average (31.4%) but higher than Oakleaf Village (20.7%) and Discovery Oaks Elementary (17.4%). Compared to its nearby Duval County neighbor, Chimney Lakes Elementary School, Argyle outperforms in 5th-grade Science (59% vs. 52%) and offers a lower student-teacher ratio (12.3:1 vs. 19.3:1), highlighting the strength of the Clay district.
