Summary

Legacy Elementary School in MacClenny, FL, is a mid-sized school serving 650 students in grades 1-5 within the Baker district, which ranks in the bottom half of Florida districts.

Legacy Elementary has a strong attendance culture, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 25.2%—the lowest among nearby elementary schools and notably better than the state average of 31.4%. However, the school struggles academically, earning a 2-star rating and ranking in the 40th percentile statewide. The most striking comparison is with MacClenny Elementary School, just 4.24 miles away, which is a 4-star school in the 79th percentile. The gap is especially wide in math: for example, 3rd-grade math proficiency at Legacy is 66%, compared to 93% at MacClenny. This difference persists despite both schools being in the same district and town, though MacClenny has a lower rate of economic disadvantage (43.27% vs. 53.69% free/reduced lunch). Legacy also spends less per student ($9,499) than its peers, including MacClenny ($10,989) and Westside Elementary School ($11,207).

There are some bright spots. Legacy’s 5th-grade science scores have improved steadily, reaching 56% proficiency in 2025-2026, nearly matching the state average. Additionally, 4th-grade math is a relative strength at 66% proficiency, tied with the state average. However, English Language Arts (ELA) is a concern, with 3rd-grade proficiency dropping to 50%, well below the district average of 61%. For context, Bryceville Elementary School in the highly-ranked Nassau district achieves exceptional results (94% in 3rd-grade math) despite a similar economic disadvantage rate, showing that high poverty need not limit achievement. For parents, Legacy offers a supportive attendance environment but faces clear challenges in math and reading that require attention.
