Somerset Academy-Elementary Eagle Campus

Summary:

Somerset Academy-Elementary Eagle Campus is a public charter elementary school in Jacksonville, Florida, serving 361 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school has a predominantly African American student population, with over 90% of students identifying as such in the 2022-2023 school year.

Despite being a public charter school, Somerset Academy-Elementary Eagle Campus has consistently struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 26.8% in 2018-2019 to 40.1% in 2021-2022, significantly higher than the Duval district and state averages. The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is also significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 32% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 46% in the district and 55% statewide. As a result, Somerset Academy-Elementary Eagle Campus has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of Florida elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from School Digger for most years.

When comparing Somerset Academy-Elementary Eagle Campus to other nearby schools in the Duval County district, such as San Mateo Elementary School, located just 3 miles away, it becomes clear that the school is an outlier in terms of academic performance and other key metrics. San Mateo Elementary School consistently outperforms Somerset Academy-Elementary Eagle Campus on standardized tests and has a much lower chronic absenteeism rate. The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at Somerset Academy-Elementary Eagle Campus, ranging from 76.73% to 86.45% in recent years, suggests that socioeconomic factors may be playing a significant role in the school's academic challenges.

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.
