Summary

Youth County-Op Preparatory High School is a small high school in Hialeah, FL, serving 240 students in grades 9-12 within the Miami-Dade County Public School District, where over 72% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

The school’s standout strength is its perfect 100% graduation rate for the last two school years, far exceeding the district average of 93.1% and the state average of 92.2%. This is a remarkable achievement given its high poverty rate, and it places Youth County-Op alongside top performers like Mater Performing Arts & Entertainment Academy and Miami Lakes Educational Center. However, the school shows a mixed academic picture: it excels in US History (85% proficient) and Geometry (73% proficient), but struggles in Algebra 1 (50% proficient) and 9th-grade ELA (55% proficient). This creates a "high graduation, low test score" paradox, suggesting the school is effective at helping students complete credits but less so at ensuring deep academic mastery. Its chronic absenteeism rate of 36.1% is a significant concern, much higher than the district average of 28.2% and more than double the rate at nearby Miami Lakes Educational Center (16.1%).

Youth County-Op sits in a competitive neighborhood with extreme highs and lows. Within 2.5 miles, you’ll find elite schools like Jose Marti Mast 6-12 Academy (ranked 21st in Florida) and struggling schools like Hialeah-Miami Lakes Senior High (ranked 666th). Youth County-Op lands in the middle, with a recent 3-star rating (63rd percentile) after a decline from 4 stars in previous years. Its small size and lower per-student spending ($10,167) contrast with larger schools like Hialeah Gardens Senior High School (3,009 students). For families who don’t get into top magnet or charter schools, Youth County-Op offers a solid, middle-of-the-road option with a proven track record of getting students to graduation.
