Summary

Doral Academy is a K-5 elementary school in Doral, FL, serving 1,091 students within the Miami-Dade school district, and it has earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for every year on record since 2015-2016.

This school is an academic powerhouse, consistently ranking in the 97th percentile or higher among Florida elementary schools for the past decade. Its test scores are exceptional, with 86-90% of students proficient in Math and 86-89% proficient in English Language Arts across all grades—rates that are 20-30 percentage points higher than district and state averages. While nearby schools like Downtown Doral Charter Elementary School (96th percentile) and Pinecrest North Preparatory (Fontainebleau Campus) (95th percentile) are also excellent, Doral Academy has historically outperformed them. One of its most striking features is an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of just 6.9%, compared to 17.2% at Renaissance Elementary Charter School and 28.2% district-wide, indicating a highly engaged student body and strong school culture.

Doral Academy also stands out for its efficiency, spending just $8,849 per student—far less than many lower-performing nearby schools like E.W.F. Stirrup Elementary School ($14,308) and Charles R Hadley Elementary School ($15,231)—while achieving superior results. The school serves a relatively affluent population, with only 22% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch. While its state ranking has seen a slight dip from 14th to 59th in recent years, it remains an elite choice. The success of the nearby Doral Academy North Charter Elementary suggests the school's proven educational formula is being successfully replicated in the community.
