Summary

Virginia A Boone-Highland Oaks School is an elementary school in Miami, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 626 students. This school is part of the Miami-Dade school district, which is ranked 22 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school consistently outperforms the Miami-Dade and Florida state averages in various standardized tests, with 79% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in Statewide Science/Science, compared to 56% for Miami-Dade and 55% for Florida. However, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 17.3% in 2021-2022 to 31.4% in 2023-2024, which is higher than the state average. The school's spending per student has increased from $11,899 in 2020-2021 to $13,799 in 2023-2024, suggesting a strong financial investment.

When compared to nearby schools, Aventura City Of Excellence School, a public charter school within the same district, has lower test scores in several subjects compared to Virginia A Boone-Highland Oaks School. The school's free and reduced-price lunch rate, while decreasing, is still relatively high, indicating a student population with lower socioeconomic status, which may be a factor in the school's chronic absenteeism rates and require additional support and resources to address.

The Principal is not involved it all with the parents and students, all the time that you need to talk with him he is always busy. If you have a child with Special needs i don't recommend this elementary school it all. I have a very bad experience with my child. Close Quote
