Summary

Andrew A. Robinson Elementary School is a public magnet elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Jacksonville, Florida, with 526 students. 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. Despite its magnet status, Andrew A. Robinson Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Florida elementary schools over the past decade.

One of the key challenges facing the school is its extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 60.0% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is well below district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 34% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 51% in the district and 57% statewide. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 80-81% in recent years, indicating the socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Duval district, such as Northwestern Legends Elementary, North Shore Elementary, and Susie E. Tolbert Elementary, also struggle academically and have similar demographic and socioeconomic challenges, suggesting that the issues facing Andrew A. Robinson Elementary are systemic within the district. Despite the relatively high spending per student at the school, ranging from $9,620 to $12,277, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes, raising questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and the need for a more targeted, evidence-based approach to improving student learning.
