Yulee High School

Q: Is Yulee High School a good school?

Yulee High School ranks 190 th of 807 Florida alternative schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 4 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Yulee High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Yulee, Florida, with a student population of 1,407. The school is part of the Nassau District, which is ranked 3rd out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Yulee High School stands out for its strong academic performance, with consistently high graduation rates ranging from 91.3% to 94.1% over the past five years, significantly higher than the state average. The school's students have also demonstrated exceptional proficiency in subjects like Biology 1 and US History, outperforming both the Nassau District and the state averages. While Yulee High School has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism, reaching 40.6% in the 2022-2023 school year, this rate is still lower than the nearby West Nassau County High School (46.5%) and significantly lower than the Nassau County Community School (88.0%).

Interestingly, while Yulee High School has a predominantly White student population (72.28%), the nearby West Nassau County High School has an even higher percentage of White students (88.71%). In contrast, the student populations of the Duval County schools, such as Marine Science Education Center, William M. Raines High School, Andrew Jackson High School, and Jean Ribault High School, are much more racially diverse, with a higher proportion of African American and Hispanic students. This highlights the educational inequities that exist within the region and the need for targeted interventions to support underperforming schools.

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.
