Summary

Boyd H. Anderson High School is a public magnet high school serving grades 9-12 in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida. With a student population of 2,162, the school is part of the Broward County School District, which is ranked 25th out of 67 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school offers a magnet program, it consistently underperforms compared to the Broward County and Florida state averages on standardized tests. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school had significantly lower proficiency rates than the county and state in subjects like Algebra 1 (57% vs. 65% and 60%), Geometry (58% vs. 62% and 55%), and 10th grade English Language Arts (44% vs. 61% and 58%). Additionally, the school's four-year graduation rate has been around 89% in recent years, slightly below the state average of 96% for the 2023-2024 school year. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 30.9% to 47.8% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average.

When compared to other nearby high schools, such as Dillard 6-12 and Fort Lauderdale High School, both magnet schools in the Broward County district, Boyd H. Anderson High School generally underperforms. The school's relatively low socioeconomic status, with a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, and higher student-teacher ratio may be contributing factors to its underperformance.
