Summary

San Jose Primary School is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-5 in Jacksonville, Florida, with 254 students. The school is located in the Duval school district, which is ranked 54 out of 67 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

San Jose Primary School is struggling significantly compared to other schools in the area. It has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 65.8% over the past few years, which is much higher than the district and state averages. The school's test scores are also consistently well below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects, with only 12-30% of students proficient in ELA and 16-30% proficient in Math, compared to 49-59% and 54-63% at the district level. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at San Jose Primary School has fluctuated greatly, from 20.78% to 50.53%, indicating a high-need student population.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Loretto Elementary, Seaside Community Charter, and River City Science Academy have significantly higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates compared to San Jose Primary School, despite serving similar student populations. Additionally, the student demographics and free/reduced lunch rates at San Jose Primary School are comparable to nearby schools like Crown Point Elementary and Beauclerc Elementary, but those schools have notably higher test scores. The school's lower spending per student and fluctuating student-teacher ratio may also contribute to its challenges in providing a quality education to its students.

For students that learn not as fast they will not help them like is sopossed too. I don't recommend this school. And they are new staff working in this school that they are rude in how communicate things to a parent. And if your child don't speak English and you ask for help they will just tell you they are not a bilingual school and to put your child in another school. That's rude. Close Quote
