Clay County School District earned an 'A' grade for the 2024-25 school year, one of only two districts in the North Central Florida region to do so, per this dataset's Orange Park research citing Florida Department of Education data. District-wide, 64% of students tested proficient in math and 62% in reading on the state's 2024-25 FAST and End-of-Course assessments, and Niche.com's 2025 rankings placed Clay County District Schools #4 among Florida's best school districts. The district serves roughly 38,600-39,400 students across 54 schools with a student-teacher ratio of about 19-to-1.
Middleburg's own named schools, without independently confirmed individual grades
Middleburg is served by its own namesake schools within Clay County School District, including Middleburg High School and Middleburg Elementary School, along with nearby Lake Asbury Elementary and Lake Asbury Junior-Senior High School in the adjacent Lake Asbury growth corridor. This session could not independently confirm current individual state accountability letter grades, GreatSchools ratings, or enrollment figures for any of these specific schools -- a disclosed gap rather than an invented figure. Families should verify each school's current individual grade directly via the Florida DOE's report-card portal or Clay County School District before enrolling, rather than assuming the district-wide 'A' applies uniformly to every school within it.

Clay County's ongoing population growth (see moving) has real implications for school capacity in a fast-growing corridor like Middleburg/Lake Asbury -- confirm current attendance-zone assignments and any capacity or rezoning plans directly with Clay County School District, since zone boundaries in growing areas can shift between school years.
