Summary

Andrew Jackson High School is a public magnet high school in Jacksonville, Florida, serving 837 students in grades 9-12 and part of the Duval School District.

Despite the school's magnet program, Andrew Jackson High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Florida high schools, ranging from 415 to 594 out of 844 schools in recent years, and has maintained a 2-star or 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other Florida high schools. The school's four-year graduation rates have been on par with or slightly below the district and state averages, but it has experienced high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 44.8% in recent years, significantly higher than the district and state averages. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on standardized tests lag behind the district and state averages in most subject areas, though it performs relatively better in Biology 1 and US History.

Comparing Andrew Jackson High School to nearby schools, such as the high-performing Stanton College Preparatory and the specialized Pretrial Detention Facility and Grand Park Career Center, highlights the disparities in educational outcomes within the Duval School District. The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Andrew Jackson High School, as well as the higher per-student spending, suggest that targeted interventions and support may be necessary to address the unique challenges faced by the school and similar underperforming institutions in the district.
