Summary

Andrew Jackson High School in Jacksonville, FL, is a traditional public high school serving 839 students in grades 9-12 within the Duval County School District, where about 48% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school stands out for its remarkable upward trajectory, climbing from a 1-star rating in 2020-2021 to a 3-star rating in 2025-2026, now ranking in the 55th percentile statewide—a clear sign that recent efforts are paying off.

The most impressive differentiator is the school's near-perfect graduation rate of 99.5% for 2024-2025, which not only exceeds the district (94.3%) and state (92.2%) averages but also rivals elite schools like Stanton College Preparatory and Darnell Cookman Middle/High School. Additionally, Andrew Jackson boasts a chronic absenteeism rate of 34.5%, which is dramatically lower than nearby peers such as William M. Raines High School (77.1%) and Jean Ribault High School (69.1%), suggesting a strong school culture that keeps students engaged. The school also excels in Biology 1 and US History EOC exams, with 82% and 92% proficiency rates respectively, outperforming both district and state averages, while doing so with efficient spending of $9,339 per student—far less than comparable schools like A. Philip Randolph Academies ($16,042).

However, the school faces a notable challenge in English Language Arts (ELA), where only 44% of 9th graders and 55% of 10th graders are proficient, well below state averages. This creates an interesting tension with the high graduation rate, which may reflect strong credit recovery programs. Located just 1.31 miles from the top-ranked Stanton College Preparatory, Andrew Jackson effectively serves a very different student population, highlighting the diverse educational landscape in Duval County. Overall, this school offers a compelling option for families seeking a school with a proven turnaround story, strong graduation support, and efficient use of resources.
