Summary

The Bridge To Success Academy Middle School is a public middle school in Jacksonville, Florida, serving grades 4-8 with a total enrollment of 360 students. The school is part of the Duval School District, which is ranked 54 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, The Bridge To Success Academy Middle School has consistently ranked very low among Florida middle schools, ranking 1113 out of 1205 in the 2024-2025 school year with a 0-star rating.

The school faces significant challenges, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 30.9% to 81.6% over the past two school years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Academically, the school performs poorly on standardized tests across all grade levels and subjects compared to the district and state, with only 6-28% of students proficient in English Language Arts and 5-36% proficient in Math in 2024-2025. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 84.44% in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Interestingly, the school's performance is significantly worse than nearby schools, such as the Julia Landon College Preparatory & Leadership Development S and James Weldon Johnson College Preparatory Middle School, which have much higher proficiency rates and school rankings. Despite the higher spending per student at The Bridge To Success Academy Middle School, the school's performance has remained consistently poor over the past few years, suggesting that addressing the underlying issues, such as chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage, may be crucial in improving student outcomes.
