Duval


Summary:

The Duval school district in Florida encompasses a diverse range of 204 schools, including 126 elementary schools, 27 middle schools, 41 high schools, and 10 alternative schools. The district serves students across a wide geographic area, with schools located in both urban and suburban settings.

Some of the standout schools in the Duval district include Paxon School/Advanced Studies and Stanton College Preparatory, which rank among the top high schools in the state with 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger. These schools boast exceptional test scores, high graduation rates, and low rates of chronic absenteeism. At the elementary level, Hendricks Avenue Elementary and Jacksonville Beach Elementary also earn 5-star ratings and have very high proficiency rates on state assessments.

However, the district also faces significant performance gaps, with many schools struggling to reach proficiency levels above 30-40% on state assessments. Schools with higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tend to have the lowest test scores and graduation rates, suggesting a correlation between poverty and academic achievement. Addressing these disparities and ensuring equitable access to resources and opportunities will be crucial for improving educational outcomes across the Duval school district.
