Summary

Coronado High School in Fort Myers, FL, is a small alternative school serving 294 students in grades 7 through 12 within the Lee district, and it faces severe challenges that set it apart from nearby schools.

The most critical issue is the school's graduation rate, which stands at just 34.7% for the 2024-2025 school year. This is dramatically lower than the district average of 89.8% and the state average of 92.2%. For comparison, Fort Myers High School, located less than a mile away, boasts a 98.7% graduation rate, while Dunbar High School achieves 90.5%. Academic proficiency is also critically low, with 0% of students proficient in Geometry and 8th Grade Science, and only 11% proficient in 8th Grade ELA. In contrast, Fort Myers High School sees 57% proficiency in Geometry and 69% in 10th Grade ELA. Chronic absenteeism is a major factor, with 90.4% of students missing significant school time—nearly three times the district rate of 34.6%. The student-to-teacher ratio is extremely high at 36.7:1, far exceeding the ratios at other alternative schools like the Young Parent Education Program (4.9:1) and Success Academy (4.6:1).

Despite these challenges, there is a slight positive trend: the school's state ranking has improved from the 3rd percentile in 2016-2017 to the 9th percentile in 2025-2026, and the graduation rate has risen from 12.1% in 2022-2023 to 34.7% in 2024-2025. However, per-student spending is modest at $9,457, comparable to Fort Myers High School ($9,951) and Dunbar High School ($10,027), yet outcomes remain vastly different. This suggests that Coronado serves a highly at-risk population that requires more intensive support than its current resources provide.
