Summary

Kings Trail Elementary School is a public elementary school in Jacksonville, Florida, serving 307 students in grades PK-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. Unfortunately, Kings Trail Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Florida elementary schools over the past decade.

One of the key challenges facing Kings Trail Elementary is its high chronic absenteeism rates, which have ranged from 30.9% to 59.0% in recent years - significantly higher than the district and state averages. This likely contributes to the school's academic struggles, as it lags behind the district and state in proficiency across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 21-51% of 3rd-5th graders were proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 51-57% for the district and state. In math, proficiency rates ranged from 34-51%, compared to 54-63% for the district and state.

When comparing Kings Trail Elementary to nearby schools, such as River City Science Elementary Academy and Pine Forest Elementary, it is clear that Kings Trail is underperforming academically. These nearby schools have significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math, as well as higher rankings from SchoolDigger. Additionally, Kings Trail Elementary serves a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a lower-income community, which may be a factor in the school's academic challenges.
