Duval Charter High School At Baymeadows stands out for its consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 98.0% to 100.0% over the past few years, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. However, the school has seen a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 26.3% in 2019-2020 to 48.6% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the district and state averages. Academically, the school generally performs better than the district and state in End-of-Course (EOC) and FAST assessments, particularly in Geometry, Biology 1, and US History, but lags behind in Algebra 1 and English Language Arts. The school has a diverse student population, with a relatively even distribution across White (41.2%), African American (21.08%), and Hispanic (27.1%) students, as well as a notable Asian population (4.6%).
When compared to nearby schools, Duval Charter High School At Baymeadows outperforms Sandalwood High School (92.4%) and Englewood High School (80.0%) in graduation rates, and also outperforms many of the nearby schools in EOC and FAST assessments. However, it lags behind the high-performing Douglas Anderson School of the Arts and Samuel W. Wolfson High School. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate is a concern, and the increase in spending per student, from $5,852 in 2019-2020 to $9,974 in 2022-2023, suggests a commitment to investing in the school's resources and infrastructure.
