Duval County Public Schools

If there is one phrase that describes Duval County Public Schools over the last several years, it is continuous quality improvement! As one of Florida’s seven major metropolitan school districts, Duval has made extraordinary progress in student achievement with a “whole child” educational philosophy and relentless commitment to instruction excellence intentionally designed to prepare students for 21st century career and college. 

• 2018-19 district grade of “B” per the Florida Department of Education. 
• Highest "B" of any school district in Florida.
• Less than one percentage point from being an "A" district.
• 87% of schools earned “A, B, or C.”
• 42 schools increased at least one letter grade, including six schools that jumped two letter grades.  

We’re a “B,” and an “A” is in striking distance; less than one percentage point away. But more important than our grade, our success is that our students are more prepared than ever before for whatever step is next on their academic and career plan.
