Summary

City/Pembroke Pines Charter High School in Pembroke Pines, FL, is a large public charter school serving 2,168 students in grades 6 through 12, and it consistently outperforms both the Broward district and state averages across nearly all academic subjects.

The school’s most unique strength is its middle school component (grades 6-8), which creates a seamless pipeline of high-achieving students. For example, 8th-grade math proficiency is an extraordinary 91%, which is 44 points higher than the district average and 30 points above the state. This strong foundation feeds directly into high school success, where the school posts top scores in Algebra 1 (81% proficient), Biology 1 (83%), and US History (88%). Its graduation rate is virtually perfect, never dipping below 98.9% in the last five years, and it has historically maintained very low chronic absenteeism. While the school has slipped from a 5-star to a 4-star state ranking in recent years, its test scores remain high, and it competes directly with nearby elite schools like Cypress Bay High School and Somerset Arts Conservatory for top honors in the region.

Interestingly, the school achieves these results with per-student spending ($11,149) that is above average but not the highest among nearby schools, suggesting efficient resource allocation and a strong academic culture. It also stands in stark contrast to other local charter schools like Somerset Academy Charter High School Miramar Campus and Franklin Academy Pembroke Pines High School, which are significantly lower-performing. This shows that the school’s success is driven by its specific leadership and curriculum, not just the charter label.

This school truly prepares students for college. They are challenged to do their best and teachers are ready to help students that require extra help. Parents take an active part in their children education through voluntarism, in-school parents seminars, and general school wide support. I highly recommend it. Close Quote
