Summary

Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL, is a large, high-performing public high school serving 3,089 students in grades 9-12 within the Broward County Public School District.

This school stands out as a top-tier academic leader in the region, consistently earning 4 or 5 stars and ranking in the 90th percentile statewide. Its students achieve exceptionally high proficiency rates on state assessments, significantly outperforming nearby traditional public schools like Monarch High School, J. P. Taravella High School, and Coral Springs High School. For example, 87% of students are proficient in Biology 1 and 90% in US History, both the highest scores among all nearby schools. The school also boasts a near-perfect graduation rate of 99.4%, far exceeding district and state averages. Interestingly, its closest academic competitor is Coral Springs Charter School, but MSD outperforms it in nearly every subject test, solidifying its position as the premier choice in the area.

Despite these stellar results, a notable concern is a rising chronic absenteeism rate of 34.5%, which is higher than the district and state averages and contrasts sharply with high-performing peers like West Boca Raton High School (16.8%). This suggests that while attending students excel, a significant portion of the student body is missing substantial school days. Additionally, the school’s high performance is not driven by higher spending, as its per-student funding is lower than several nearby schools that perform worse. This points to strong community support and effective teaching as key drivers of its success.
