Summary

Winston Park K-8 Center in Miami, FL, is a large, well-established public school serving 1,067 students from Pre-K through 8th grade as part of the Miami-Dade school district, and it has earned a strong reputation for academic excellence, particularly in its middle school program.

One of the school's biggest strengths is its exceptional performance in advanced middle school courses. In the 2025-2026 school year, Winston Park achieved a perfect 100% proficiency rate in Geometry and Biology 1, and a 90% proficiency rate in Algebra 1—scores that far exceed district and state averages. This makes it a standout choice for families seeking a strong math and science track, especially when compared to nearby K-8 options like Somerset Palms Academy, where Algebra 1 proficiency is 76%. The school also excels in upper elementary and middle school math, with proficiency rates in grades 5 through 8 significantly outpacing those at nearby elementary-only schools like Bent Tree Elementary School and Claude Pepper Elementary School. Another key advantage is its remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of 14.8%, which is roughly half the district and state averages, indicating a highly engaged student body.

While Winston Park is a large school with a higher student-teacher ratio of 17.7, it achieves strong results with efficient resource allocation, spending $12,587 per student—less than schools like Bent Tree ($22,412) that don't match its middle school performance. The school has also shown impressive resilience, rebounding from a dip in state rankings in 2022-2023 to the 76th percentile by 2025-2026. For parents considering a continuous educational pathway from elementary through middle school, Winston Park offers a compelling option, particularly for students interested in advanced coursework, and it stands in stark contrast to the struggling Bridgeprep Academy Charter nearby, which is a 0-star school.
