Summary

Chet's Creek Elementary School in Jacksonville, FL, is a large, high-performing elementary school (PK-5) serving 1,079 students in a relatively affluent area of the Duval County School District, where only 27.9% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Chet's Creek has a strong history of academic excellence, consistently earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in recent years, though it has seen a slight dip from its peak 5-star performance between 2016 and 2021. The school's greatest strength is mathematics, with outstanding proficiency rates of 78% in 3rd grade, 89% in 4th grade, and 80% in 5th grade—far exceeding district and state averages. However, its English Language Arts (ELA) scores have shown some volatility, with 3rd-grade proficiency dropping from 69% to 63% over the past two years. This is an area where the school lags behind its closest neighbor, J. Allen Axson Elementary School (0.97 miles away), which has dramatically higher ELA scores (92% in 3rd and 4th grade) and has overtaken Chet's Creek in overall performance, now ranking in the 98th percentile statewide compared to Chet's Creek's 85th percentile.

Interestingly, Chet's Creek achieves strong results with relatively modest per-student spending of $9,745, which is significantly less than Abess Park Elementary School ($13,387) and Alimacani Elementary School ($11,532), both of which have lower state rankings. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 24.2% is far better than the Duval County average of 44.8%, but higher than top-performing peers like Jacksonville Beach Elementary School (11.0%) and J. Allen Axson Elementary (18.9%). For parents, Chet's Creek offers a solid, well-rounded education with exceptional math instruction, but those prioritizing early literacy may want to explore nearby options that have shown stronger recent gains in reading.

My child has a learning disorder. Has trouble paying a attention.
Gets no help from teachers. If you "the teacher" can send home a note that my child was talking... you should be able to send me a note, that my child is not participating or is off task. Chets creek does not care if your child needs help. Do not bring your child here if they need extra help in class. Close Quote

If your child has special needs, this is not the school for them. If you aren't part of the already formed clique, this school is not for you. If you are not a teacher with your child enrolled in this school, this school is not for you. I am so glad I took my children to private school and they are now receiving the services they needed. Nothing is more infuriating than having teachers who are unable to help your child, blame your child, and insist they need certain medications. The teachers are fake, and the principal backs her teachers and does not listen to the parents. I would not recommend this school to anyone. Close Quote
