Summary

Oakleaf Junior High in Orange Park, FL, serves 906 students in grades 6 through 8 and is part of the highly-rated Clay County School District, which ranks in the top 25% of Florida districts.

This school has a unique "two-tiered" academic profile. On one hand, it excels at accelerating top students into advanced math, with an impressive 96% proficiency in Algebra 1 and 98% in Geometry End-of-Course exams—far exceeding district and state averages. This performance is on par with top Clay County peers like Wilkinson Junior High School and Lakeside Junior High School. On the other hand, the school struggles with grade-level math proficiency, where only 48% of 6th graders and 51% of 7th graders meet standards—well below the district average. This contrast suggests that while advanced students thrive, the majority of students may need more support in standard math. The school also maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 15.6:1, lower than many nearby schools like Orange Park Junior High School (19.3:1) and Chaffee Trail Middle School (29.7:1), allowing for more individualized attention.

Compared to nearby schools in the Duval County district, Oakleaf stands out for its stability and lower chronic absenteeism rate of 24.4%, which is significantly better than schools like Westside Middle School (64.2%) and Alfred I. Dupont Middle School (55.5%). In 8th-grade science, Oakleaf's 58% proficiency is nearly triple that of Westside (23%). For families, Oakleaf offers a reliable environment with strong advanced programs, but it may present challenges for students who need extra help in grade-level math.
