2024-2025 academic performance by school
BY LEN CABRERA
ALACHUA COUNTY, Fla. – The Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) has released the academic assessment results for the 2024-2025 school year, and you can see how Alachua County did relative to other counties and the state as a whole in this article.
The tables below show how Alachua County schools performed in math, ELA (English Language Arts), and writing. A blank entry means there was no data. Entries with an asterisk (*) indicate fewer than 10 students reported scores, so FLDOE did not report a value. All the data can be found at the FLDOE’s 2025 Florida Assessment of Student Thinking and B.E.S.T. Assessments page.
Elementary Schools
Middle Schools
High Schools
High school students take end-of-course assessments instead of grade-level tests.
P.K. Yonge students did very well. I love that school.
I don’t think PK Young is a ‘public’ school in the strictest sense.
I’m pretty sure there is criteria that must be met and in so doing, there’s not much question to their success.
How did private schools do in comparison to public schools? Do private schools send test info to the state?
Lol if you look it’s at the bottom of each section PKY
Seems the school board should do less virtue signaling and more evaluating of our schools.
I gaduated with a 1.0 GPA from Gibbs High School. But I can still roll one, pop a cork and drive all at once. Those skills keep on giving.
What is the problem at Rawlings, Metcalf and Williams??
Clientele issue
Any statisticians here? The variability from year to year within schools might suggest the inaccuracies of this data.
I’d venture to say the variabilities (year to year), lie primarily in the teachers who are tasked with teaching the children. They don’t “advance” to the next grade level with the children.
It doesn’t take much of a statistician to make a conclusion as to the likely variabilities between the individual schools. Parental involvement, (other than sports), student attendance, and discipline. I wonder if many students opted for one school to another for a magnet program and whether that skewed the results.
What’s extremely puzzling are the results that show gains of greater than 25 – 30%. That’s a remarkable increase and there has to be a contributing factor. Whatever it is, the district should find it, bottle it, and sell it.
Huh
I am not surprised. Last year, I heard from a Gainesville High School student in one of the nursing programs that they spent the entire year with a substitute teacher and learned nothing! None of the school board members had anything to say about it. How embarrassing!
democrats will not let facts get in the way of their political agenda.
