Summary

Miami Springs Middle School is a public school in Miami Springs, FL, serving 666 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Miami-Dade district, where about 60% of students come from low-income families.

This school has a striking split in student performance. It excels in advanced high school-level courses, with 84% of students proficient in Geometry and 89% in Biology—well above district and state averages. However, the majority of students struggle in standard grade-level subjects, such as 8th grade Science (17% proficient) and 7th grade Math (26% proficient). This means the school effectively accelerates its top students but leaves many others behind. Nearby charter schools like International Studies Charter Middle School and Mater International Preparatory perform well across all subjects, while traditional public schools such as Henry H. Filer Middle School and Madison Middle School face similar challenges to Miami Springs.

Chronic absenteeism is a major concern, with 33.3% of students missing too many days in 2023-2024—higher than the district and state averages, and far worse than nearby high-performing schools like International Studies Charter (12.3%). Despite spending $11,428 per student—more than many nearby schools—academic results remain low. On a positive note, test scores have shown slight improvement in recent years as the percentage of low-income students has declined, suggesting the school may be on a slow upward trajectory. Still, families should weigh the school's strong advanced programs against its struggles with grade-level learning and attendance.
