Summary

Sunfire High School is a public charter high school located in Oakland Park, Florida, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 403 students. The school is part of the Broward County School District, which is ranked 25th out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sunfire High School consistently performs significantly below the Broward County and Florida state averages on standardized tests. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 5% of Sunfire students were proficient or better in Algebra 1, compared to 65% in Broward County and 60% statewide. The school's four-year graduation rate around 89% is slightly below the state average but on par with nearby schools like Stranahan High School and Lauderhill 6-12. However, Sunfire High School has had very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.9% to 96.9% in recent years, significantly higher than the state and district averages.

The wide swings in free/reduced lunch rates at Sunfire High School suggest the school may be serving a transient or unstable student population, which could contribute to the academic challenges. Additionally, the declining per-student spending at the school, from $11,498 in 2020-2021 to $6,356 in 2023-2024, coupled with the high chronic absenteeism rates, may indicate that Sunfire High School is facing resource constraints that are impacting its ability to provide a high-quality education. Overall, Sunfire High School is a struggling public charter school that is significantly underperforming academically compared to its peers, both locally and statewide.
