Summary

Christina M. Eve Elementary School is a public elementary school in Miami, Florida, serving 506 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Miami-Dade school district, which is ranked 22 out of 67 districts in the state.

The school consistently outperforms the Miami-Dade and Florida state averages in standardized tests, with proficiency rates as high as 85% in 4th grade English Language Arts and 70% in 4th grade Math, compared to 59% and 68% for the district, respectively. The school's 5th grade science proficiency rate of 58% is also significantly higher than the district (56%) and state (55%) averages. However, the school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 14.9% in 2021-2022 to 31.4% in 2023-2024, a trend also observed in nearby schools like Calusa Elementary, Dante B. Fascell Elementary, and Bowman Ashe/Doolin K-8 Academy.

The school's free and reduced lunch rate has decreased from 59.79% in 2021-2022 to 41.3% in 2023-2024, suggesting a shift in the school's socioeconomic composition, a trend not seen in all nearby schools, such as Pinecrest Academy (South Campus) and Kendall Square K-8 Center, which maintain higher percentages of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. The increased spending per student at Christina M. Eve Elementary, from $13,008 in 2021-2022 to $15,513 in 2023-2024, may contribute to the school's strong academic performance, which is not consistently seen in neighboring schools with lower per-student spending.

Open Quote In a few words, a school that truly cares about the individual success of each and every student, no matter the challenge.

Open Quote My children are 5th graders at CME and will be graduating this year. CME is an excellent school that has prepared them academically and socially for middle school. They applied to five magnet middle schools and were fortunate to be accepted to all. My children were in the gifted program. The gifted teachers are excellent, particularly Mrs. Aulow. The regular teachers were also terrific as this is not an all gifted program. The school does not overlook the specialty areas either, Mr. Walker the music teacher and Mrs. Chirino, the art teacher motivate and encourage the kids to achieve their potential. Mrs. Melendez the VP knows her students and loves them as her own. We were sorry to see Mr. Diaz, the principal, leave last year but Ms. Gonzalez, the new principal, is doing a great job thus far. One of the best schools, if not the best, in Miami Dade County. Close Quote
