Summary

Vineland K-8 Center is a public elementary and middle school located in Miami, Florida, serving 686 students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. As part of the Miami-Dade County Public School District, the school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, with impressive academic performance that exceeds district and state averages.

Vineland K-8 Center's students demonstrate high proficiency rates in core subjects, with 95% proficiency in Algebra 1 and proficiency ranging from 71% to 89% in English Language Arts and 60% to 85% in Math. However, the school has experienced higher rates of chronic absenteeism compared to the district and state averages, which may impact student learning. The school's relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 25.51% to 38.5%, suggests a more affluent student population, which could contribute to its academic success. Additionally, Vineland K-8 Center spends between $10,280 and $12,972 per student, higher than the state average, and maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 15.5 to 17.2 students per teacher.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Gloria Floyd Elementary, Somerset Academy Bay, and Palmetto Elementary, Vineland K-8 Center consistently outperforms them in academic measures, including test scores and statewide rankings. The school's focus on resource allocation and low student-teacher ratio may contribute to its strong academic performance, setting it apart from its peers in the Miami-Dade County Public School District.
