Summary

Sunfire High School in Oakland Park, FL, is a small high school serving 474 students in grades 9-12, but it is facing a severe crisis that sets it apart from nearly every other school in the Broward district.

The most alarming metric is the graduation rate, which has plummeted to just 15.2%—a staggering contrast to nearby schools like Stranahan High School (98.0%) and Fort Lauderdale High School (98.7%). Even Sandra Marie Curtis High School, another low-performing school, graduates students at a rate of 50.9%. Chronic absenteeism is nearly universal at Sunfire, with over 96% of students missing significant school—far higher than the district average of 33.6%. Academic proficiency is in the single digits across subjects, with 0% of students proficient in Algebra 1, compared to 32% at Stranahan and 52% at Fort Lauderdale.

Compounding these challenges, Sunfire spends just $6,272 per student—less than half of what Lauderhill 6-12 ($14,097) or Dillard 6-12 ($10,648) spend. The student-teacher ratio has been reported as high as 134:1, making individualized instruction nearly impossible. This combination of extreme disengagement, minimal funding, and catastrophic outcomes suggests Sunfire requires an urgent, comprehensive intervention that goes far beyond standard academic support.
