Summary

City Of Hialeah Educational Academy is a public charter school in Hialeah, FL, serving 1,002 students in grades 6 through 12 within the Miami-Dade school district, a district ranked in the top 30% of Florida. The school stands out for its exceptionally high graduation rate, consistently near 100% over the last five years, which significantly outperforms both the district and state averages. However, this success is paired with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 33.6%, suggesting the school has strong systems to help students meet graduation requirements even when attendance is a challenge. With over 82% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, the school achieves above-average academic outcomes, demonstrating effective support for its economically disadvantaged student body.

A key differentiator is the school's strong middle school program (grades 6-8), which consistently outperforms district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Math. For example, 6th-grade ELA proficiency reached 71% compared to the district's 67%, and 8th-grade Math hit 65% versus the district's 65%. This foundation feeds into high school success, though performance on end-of-course exams is mixed—Biology 1 proficiency is strong at 79%, but Geometry proficiency lags at 43%, well below the district average of 60%. Compared to nearby schools, City Of Hialeah Educational Academy offers a solid alternative to elite magnet programs like Jose Marti Mast 6-12 Academy (ranked 97th percentile) and Mater Performing Arts & Entertainment Academy (ranked 96th percentile), which have much higher proficiency rates but competitive admissions.

The school's per-student spending of $11,949 is higher than some peers like Mater Academy Charter High School ($9,275) but lower than Hialeah-Miami Lakes Senior High ($13,990), which has lower academic outcomes, indicating efficient resource use. While it doesn't match the top-tier performance of nearby magnet schools, City Of Hialeah Educational Academy is a resilient, above-average school that excels at graduating its students and providing a strong middle school foundation, making it a compelling choice for families seeking a high-performing school without a competitive admissions process.
