Summary:
The 33165 zip code area of Miami, Florida is home to 13 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The schools in this area serve a diverse student population, with high rates of economic disadvantage as indicated by the free/reduced lunch eligibility ranging from 43% to 78%.
Among the standout schools in this area are Pinecrest Cove Academy, a public charter elementary/middle school that consistently ranks in the top 10% of Florida elementary schools, and Rockway Middle School, a public middle school with over 90% proficiency in several core subjects. The two public high schools, Southwest Miami Senior High and Miami Coral Park Senior High, both perform close to the Miami-Dade district and state averages, with graduation rates around 90%.
However, a significant challenge facing all schools in the 33165 zip code is the high rate of chronic absenteeism, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, the wide range in per-student spending, from $9,573 to $26,864, suggests that funding levels alone do not determine school performance, and other factors such as leadership, curriculum, and instructional practices likely play a crucial role. Overall, the data provides a nuanced view of the schools in this area, highlighting both areas of strength and areas for improvement.
