Summary

Alonzo & Tracy Mourning Senior High School in Miami, FL, serves 1,633 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Miami-Dade district, with 32.5% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch. This large public high school has experienced a notable decline in recent years, dropping from a 62nd percentile state ranking in 2018-2019 to the 39th percentile in 2025-2026, resulting in a 2-star rating for the last two years. This downward trend stands in stark contrast to nearby high-performing schools like Mast@fiu (99th percentile) and Iprep Academy North (94th percentile), which have maintained elite status, while even traditional peers like Dr. Michael M. Krop Senior High have remained relatively stable.

A critical issue driving the school's struggles is its alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rate of 40.4% (2023-2024), which is significantly worse than the district (28.2%) and state (31.4%) averages. This rate is more than double that of high-performing neighbors like Mast@fiu (7.4%) and Iprep Academy North (17.5%). The school also underperforms in core subjects, particularly in Algebra 1 (30% proficient vs. 69% district) and Geometry (39% vs. 60% district), while nearby charter and magnet schools often achieve 80-90%+ proficiency. Additionally, the student-teacher ratio of 30.8:1 is one of the highest in the area, far exceeding Don Soffer Aventura Charter High School (19:1) and Mater Biscayne Academy (20.5:1), which likely hinders individualized instruction.

Despite these challenges, the school boasts a high graduation rate of 97.6% (2024-2025), creating a paradox where completion rates are strong but academic proficiency lags. Performance is inconsistent across subjects, with US History (75% proficient) and English Language Arts (51-53%) closer to district averages, while math and science struggle. The presence of elite magnet and charter schools in the area likely draws motivated students away, leaving Alonzo & Tracy Mourning to serve a population with higher needs. Per-student spending ($9,090) is not drastically lower than peers like Mast@fiu ($10,782), suggesting the school's challenges stem from resource allocation and instructional effectiveness rather than funding alone.
