Summary

Franklin Academy Cooper City is a large public charter school in Cooper City, FL, serving 1,336 students from Kindergarten through 8th grade as part of the Broward district. This school stands out for its exceptional performance in advanced courses, with 100% of students proficient in Geometry and Biology 1 End-of-Course exams, far exceeding district and state averages. It also boasts a 95% proficiency rate in Civics and 87% in Algebra 1, making it a top choice for families seeking a strong academic pathway from elementary through middle school.

Compared to nearby schools, Franklin Academy offers a unique K-8 structure that allows students to take advanced courses like Algebra and Biology in middle school—a benefit not available at top-performing elementary-only schools like Embassy Creek Elementary School. While Embassy Creek outperforms Franklin Academy in elementary-level subjects, Franklin Academy provides a seamless academic journey for families who want their children to stay in one school through 8th grade. The school also operates efficiently, spending just $9,939 per student—the lowest among nearby schools—while achieving strong results. However, parents should note that the school has a higher student-teacher ratio of 22.2:1, meaning larger class sizes than many surrounding elementary schools, which average 15-17:1.

One area of concern is a notable drop in 8th-grade science proficiency, with only 41% of students meeting standards, compared to 66% in 5th grade and below district and state averages. This suggests a potential weakness in the middle school science curriculum that families may want to investigate. On a positive note, chronic absenteeism at 21% is better than the Broward district average of 33.6%, though it is higher than at Embassy Creek (17.3%). Overall, Franklin Academy Cooper City is a strong, efficient school that excels in advanced coursework, making it an excellent option for families seeking a high-performing K-8 school in the area.
