Summary

Normandy Village Elementary School is a PK-5 public school in Jacksonville, FL, serving 503 students within the Duval County School District, where 68.79% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

The most critical challenge facing Normandy Village is an extraordinarily high chronic absenteeism rate of 54.0% (2023-2024), which is significantly above the district average of 44.8% and the state average of 31.4%. This persistent issue directly correlates with the school's consistently low academic performance across all subjects. In the most recent testing, ELA proficiency ranged from 37% to 41%, and math proficiency from 35% to 41%, compared to state averages of 60-66%. The school ranks in the 7th percentile statewide, earning a 0-star rating. Interestingly, Thomas Jefferson Elementary, located just 2.76 miles away, serves a similar community but achieves dramatically better results with a 37.1% absenteeism rate and proficiency rates 15-20 percentage points higher, demonstrating that improvement is possible. Nearby schools like Gregory Drive Elementary (58.0% absenteeism) and Hyde Grove Elementary (59.6% absenteeism) also struggle, indicating a cluster of challenges in this area.

Despite spending $11,149 per student—more than several higher-performing neighbors—Normandy Village fails to translate that investment into results. For example, Gregory Drive Elementary spends $8,743 per student but achieves higher proficiency in 3rd grade math (53% vs. 35%) and 5th grade science (58% vs. 48%). The school also shows volatile year-over-year performance, particularly in 4th grade, where ELA scores swung from 51% to 41% in one year. While 5th grade science was once a bright spot, it has become inconsistent. The key takeaway for parents is that tackling absenteeism is the single most impactful lever for improving outcomes at Normandy Village, as the success of nearby Thomas Jefferson Elementary shows that better results are achievable in the same community.
