Summary

Baker County Senior High School in Glen St. Mary, FL, is a traditional public high school serving 1,318 students in grades 9 through 12, and it is the sole high school in the Baker district. This school has a 2-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year, a decline from its consistent 3-star ratings over the previous five years and a 4-star rating in 2017-2018. About 34% of students are eligible for free or reduced lunch, and the school spends approximately $9,998 per student annually.

Compared to nearby schools in the Duval district, Baker County stands out for its significantly lower chronic absenteeism rate of 32.8%, which is much better than San Jose Early College At Cecil (51.0%) and Baldwin Middle-Senior High School (48.2%). It also offers a more favorable student-teacher ratio of 16.6:1, lower than both nearby schools, and performs well in core subjects like US History (71% proficient) and Biology (65% proficient). However, its graduation rate of 83.5% is lower than the perfect rates reported for the nearby schools, though Baker County provides a longer, more consistent track record over the past five years.

A major academic red flag is Algebra 1 proficiency, where only 21% of students are proficient—far below the state average of 63% and the district average of 39%. This contrasts with stronger performance in other subjects and suggests a specific challenge in foundational math. Chronic absenteeism remains a persistent issue, above 30% for four of the last five years, and the school's overall ranking has been on a steady decline. Since Baker County is the only high school in its district, its performance mirrors the district's, making comparisons to state averages and nearby schools essential for understanding its strengths and areas for improvement.
