Summary

Ramona Boulevard Elementary School is a public elementary school in Jacksonville, Florida, serving 290 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Duval School District, which is ranked 54 out of 67 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Ramona Boulevard Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of Florida elementary schools over the past several years.

Ramona Boulevard Elementary faces significant challenges, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 71.2% over the past few years, which is much higher than the district and state averages. The school's academic performance is also consistently below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 33% to 58% in ELA and Math, while the state averages were 57% and 63%, respectively. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 82.41% to 87.86% over the past few years, indicating a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students.

When comparing Ramona Boulevard Elementary to nearby schools in the same district, such as Fishweir Elementary and Ruth N. Upson Elementary, it becomes clear that Ramona Boulevard Elementary is an outlier in terms of academic performance and other key metrics. This suggests that addressing the school's attendance issues and resource allocation may be crucial for improving student outcomes and ensuring that all students in the Duval School District have access to a quality education.
