Summary

Miami Springs Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 390 students in grades PK-5 in Miami Springs, Florida, which is part of the Miami-Dade County Public School District. The school has seen its statewide ranking fluctuate over the past decade, ranging from a high of 419 out of 2,118 Florida elementary schools in 2017-2018 to a low of 1,145 out of 2,240 in 2022-2023.

One key area of concern for Miami Springs Elementary is its high chronic absenteeism rate, which has risen from 23.4% in 2020-2021 to 31.4% in the most recent 2023-2024 school year, significantly higher than the district and state averages. Academically, the school generally performs below the district and state averages in standardized test scores, particularly in English Language Arts, though its 4th and 5th grade math proficiency rates were higher than the district and state. The school has seen a decline in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 83.14% in 2021-2022 to 54.62% in 2023-2024, which is still higher than the state average but lower than some nearby schools.

When compared to nearby schools, Brightview Preparatory Academy and Excelsior Prep Charter School perform lower than Miami Springs Elementary, while Springview Elementary and Integrated Science and Asian Culture (ISAAC) Academy outperform it. Despite the relatively high per-student spending at Miami Springs Elementary, the school's student-teacher ratio is still higher than these higher-performing nearby schools, suggesting that the additional funding may not be translating into smaller class sizes.
