Summary

Lakeview Elementary School in Miami, FL, is a public school serving 351 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Miami-Dade district, where 66.4% of students come from low-income households. This school is a standout story of dramatic improvement, having jumped from the 16th percentile (1 star) just two years ago to the 51st percentile (3 stars) in the 2025-2026 school year—a remarkable 35-percentile-point gain that makes it the most improved school in its immediate area.

Lakeview’s upper elementary grades are now competing with the best nearby schools. In 5th-grade ELA, 68% of students are proficient, the highest among all nearby elementary-only schools and above both the district (65%) and state (61%) averages. Similarly, 4th-grade math proficiency is 69%, competitive with top performers like Miami Shores Elementary School. However, the school faces a critical challenge: 3rd-grade ELA proficiency is just 39%, a full 22 points below the district average and the lowest among nearby schools. This "3rd-grade wall" is a risk factor that could threaten the school’s momentum if not addressed. On a positive note, Lakeview has the lowest chronic absenteeism rate (20.4%) among high-poverty peers, compared to 37.7% at Nathan B. Young Elementary School and 36.4% at Arcola Lake Elementary School.

While Lakeview spends a significant $15,956 per student—higher than the $11,902 spent by the higher-performing Miami Shores Elementary—this funding hasn’t yet translated into top-tier results across all grades. Science remains a consistent weakness, with 5th-grade proficiency at 56%, below the district average of 59%. The school’s future hinges on replicating its upper-grade success in early literacy. For families comparing options, Lakeview is a rising star just 0.7 miles from Van E. Blanton Elementary School, which shows similar upward trends in 4th-grade math, and 0.73 miles from the struggling Henry Elementary School Reeves K-8 Center, making it a compelling choice for parents seeking a school on an upward trajectory.
