Summary

Academir Middle School Of Math And Science is a small charter school in Homestead, FL, serving 151 students in grades 6-8, and it has shown a remarkable upward trajectory, jumping from a 2-star to a 3-star rating in the 2025-2026 school year.

This school stands out for its exceptional performance in advanced coursework, achieving 100% proficiency in Geometry and Biology 1, and 88% in Algebra 1—scores that far exceed district and state averages. This suggests the school is highly effective at accelerating top students into high school-level classes. However, it has a "Jekyll and Hyde" profile, as grade-level subjects like 8th Grade Science (35% proficient) and Civics (59% proficient) lag behind. The school has also seen dramatic year-over-year improvement, with 6th Grade Math jumping from 56% to 77% proficiency. Notably, its chronic absenteeism rate is an astonishing 3.7%, the lowest among nearby schools like Somerset Academy Charter Middle School (28.2% district average), indicating a highly engaged student body.

Academir is a highly efficient school, spending significantly less per student ($7,798) than nearby traditional public schools like South Dade Middle School ($12,827) and Homestead Middle School ($16,497), yet outperforming them in nearly every academic metric. While it cannot yet match the consistently high scores of the 5-star Mater Academy Bay Middle School, its top students perform at the same elite level. The school's biggest challenge will be translating its success in advanced courses to the broader student body in grade-level subjects. For parents considering this school, it offers a small, focused environment with a strong emphasis on math and science acceleration, but it may require additional support for students who are not in the advanced track.
