Summary

Englewood Elementary School is a K-5 public school in Jacksonville, FL, serving 418 students within the Duval County School District, and it has historically ranked in the bottom quartile of Florida elementary schools, currently holding a 1-star rating.

The most significant challenge facing Englewood is a severe chronic absenteeism crisis, with a rate of 47.9% in 2023-2024—far exceeding the state average of 31.4% and dramatically higher than top-performing nearby schools like Hendricks Avenue Elementary School (17.8%) and River City Science Elementary Academy (24.3%). This absenteeism is strongly linked to low academic performance, as the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Science are well below district and state benchmarks. However, there is a bright spot in 4th Grade Math, where 55% of students were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year, a rate close to the district average and competitive with nearby schools like Greenfield Elementary School (60%) and San Jose Elementary School (56%).

Interestingly, Englewood spends more per student ($10,184) than high-performing Hendricks Avenue Elementary School ($9,625), indicating that funding alone is not the solution. A stark comparison can be made with Pine Forest Elementary School, located just 1.28 miles away and serving a similar-sized student population, yet achieving a 3-star rating with a 24.9% absenteeism rate. This suggests that school-level factors like culture and family engagement are critical. Additionally, a concerning "5th grade slump" is evident, with proficiency rates dropping significantly from 4th to 5th grade, pointing to potential issues with curriculum alignment or cumulative learning gaps. Addressing absenteeism is the most urgent priority for improving outcomes at Englewood.
