Summary

Whitehouse Elementary School in Jacksonville, FL, is a mid-sized school serving 380 students in grades PK through 5, and it stands out as the highest-performing traditional public elementary school in its immediate area within the Duval district.

This school presents a fascinating paradox: it achieves strong academic results despite a significant challenge. Whitehouse consistently outperforms its neighbors, including Chaffee Trail Elementary, Crystal Springs Elementary, and Jacksonville Heights Elementary School, in nearly every subject. For example, in 5th Grade Science, Whitehouse’s 78% proficiency rate is 20 points higher than the next best nearby school. Its math scores are also a clear strength, with 5th graders achieving 73% proficiency—11 points above the state average. However, the school’s biggest weakness is chronic absenteeism, which affects 55% of students. This rate is far higher than the district average (44.8%) and even worse than many lower-performing schools in the area, such as Thomas Jefferson Elementary (37.1%).

The takeaway for parents is that Whitehouse Elementary is a hidden gem with a powerful instructional engine. When students attend regularly, they receive an excellent education, particularly in science and math. The school’s spending of $10,622 per student is above average, showing the district is investing resources. If the school can tackle its attendance crisis, it has the potential to rapidly become a top-tier school in the region. For now, it offers a strong academic foundation that is being held back by a single, solvable issue.

Our family has been GREATLY disappointed in Whitehouse Elementary. The principal and administrative staff need some definite assistance and guidance on how to deal with children and especially how to deal with ESOL students. Close Quote
