Summary

Center For International Education A Cambridge Associate School in Homestead, FL, is a small, high-performing public high school serving 392 students in grades 9 through 12 within the Miami-Dade district, consistently earning a 5-star rating and ranking in the top 6% of all Florida high schools.

This school stands out dramatically from its neighbors due to exceptional academic outcomes. For example, CIE achieves a 96% proficiency rate in Biology and 92-93% in English Language Arts, far surpassing nearby schools like Everglades Preparatory Academy High School (72% Biology, 68% ELA) and the district average of 63% in ELA. The school also boasts a perfect 100% graduation rate for four of the last five years, compared to the district's 93.1% and state's 92.2%. Perhaps most telling is the stark contrast in chronic absenteeism: CIE has a low rate of 19.6%, while nearby schools like Keys Gate Charter High School (65.5%) and Homestead Senior High School (47.0%) struggle with much higher rates. This combination of high test scores, perfect graduation rates, and strong attendance creates a powerful picture of a focused, supportive learning environment.

What makes CIE's success particularly noteworthy is its resilience despite serving a diverse student body, with nearly 47% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The school's affiliation with Cambridge Assessment International Education provides a rigorous curriculum emphasizing critical thinking and in-depth subject mastery, which is reflected in its outstanding performance on state exams. While Somerset Academy Charter High School (South Homestead) and Charter High School Of The Americas (Florida City Campus) are also strong options in the area, CIE's consistent top-tier rankings and sustained excellence over the past decade make it a clear standout for families seeking a world-class education in Homestead.
