Pine Estates Elementary School

Summary:

Pine Estates Elementary School is a public elementary school in Jacksonville, Florida, serving 221 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Duval School District, which is ranked 54 out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Over the past several years, Pine Estates Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Florida elementary schools, with a ranking between 1,500-2,100 out of around 2,200 schools.

Pine Estates has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (68.78%) compared to nearby schools like San Mateo Elementary (34.81%) and Biscayne Elementary (94.93%). The school also has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 36.3% to 55.6% over the past 5 years, which is significantly higher than the nearby schools. Academically, Pine Estates consistently underperforms the Duval district and Florida state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 21-43% of students proficient in ELA and Math compared to 46-56% for the district and 53-60% for the state.

The combination of a high-poverty, predominantly African American student population and very high chronic absenteeism rates presents significant challenges for Pine Estates Elementary. While the school spends significantly more per student ($13,675 in 2022-2023) compared to nearby schools, this additional spending does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. Addressing these complex issues will likely require a multi-faceted approach involving the school, district, and community stakeholders.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
