Elementary Schools in Duval


Summary:

The Duval County school district in Florida encompasses 126 elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. These schools span a range of public, public charter, and public magnet institutions, offering diverse educational options for families in the area.

Several schools stand out as high-performing, including Jacksonville Beach Elementary School, which ranks 2nd out of 2,258 Florida elementary schools and has consistently earned 5 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. Other top-performing schools in the district include Hendricks Avenue Elementary School, J. Allen Axson Elementary School, Atlantic Beach Elementary School, and River City Science Elementary Academy. These schools demonstrate exceptional academic performance, with proficiency rates as high as 99% in core subjects.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in student outcomes across the district. While some schools excel, others struggle, with as low as 6-7% of students meeting standards in certain grade levels and subjects. Additionally, the district faces a systemic issue of high chronic absenteeism rates, which may contribute to the performance gaps observed. Addressing these challenges through targeted interventions and equitable resource allocation could be crucial steps in improving educational outcomes for all students in the Duval school district.
