Summary

Amelia Earhart Elementary School is a public PK-5 school in Hialeah, FL, serving 454 students within the Miami-Dade County Public School District, where about 64% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The most striking feature of Amelia Earhart is its exceptional 4th-grade cohort, which achieved an 80% proficiency rate in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math in the most recent school year. This performance dramatically outpaces nearby schools like Palm Springs Elementary (58% ELA, 69% Math) and Twin Lakes Elementary (51% ELA, 70% Math). This success is not a one-year fluke; the 4th-grade scores have steadily climbed from 51% in ELA three years ago. The school also invests more per student ($15,071) than many peers, resulting in a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.6, compared to 18.7 at Meadowlane Elementary. Chronic absenteeism, while historically high, has dropped to 25.4%, now below both the district and state averages.

However, the school faces clear challenges. Third-grade performance is a consistent weak point, with only 45% proficiency in ELA and 51% in Math—well below district averages. Fifth-grade science scores also lag, at 48% compared to the district's 59%. Nearby Beacon College Prep K-8 excels in 5th-grade science (73%), showing higher performance is possible in the same area. The key for Amelia Earhart will be to understand what makes its 4th-grade program so effective and apply those lessons to earlier grades, while continuing to reduce absenteeism and strengthen science instruction.
