Summary:
Schools in ZIP code 74354 include six Miami-area schools, from a PK–K elementary school through high school: three elementary schools, two middle schools and one high school. Five schools report test results; Wilson Elementary School has no scores in the supplied data. The clearest overall picture is wide variation: reported all-grades math proficiency ranges from 13% to 50%, and science from 12% to 66%. The most important finding is that outcomes differ sharply across schools and subjects, rather than one school leading across the board.
Roosevelt Elementary School stands out in the direct third-grade comparison, with 39% proficient in ELA and 50% in math, compared with 25% and 30% at Washington Elementary School—gaps of 14 and 20 percentage points. Roosevelt also has the highest reported all-grades ELA and math results. Nichols Upper Elementary School leads in science at 66%, 36 points above the state figure, while its ELA and math are each 28%. At the lower end, Miami Junior High School reports 18% in ELA and 13% in math; its eighth-grade math is 4% versus 17% statewide. Miami High School reports 12% in science and 26% in U.S. History, 15 points below the state result. Because schools serve different grade spans, all-grades figures are descriptive; third grade is the clearest school-to-school comparison.
Recent changes are mixed: average science proficiency across the three reporting schools rose from 22% to 33%, largely because Nichols gained 29 points, while average math rose from 25% to 27% and ELA stayed about 28%. Miami High’s U.S. History fell from 42% to 26%. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile ranking declined for Miami High, from 42 to 34, and rose for Miami Junior, from 16 to 24. For context, all six schools report free/reduced lunch eligible for 2024–25; figures range from 68% to 82%. Student–teacher ratios range from 15.0 to 23.3, averaging 19.8, but these measures do not sort neatly with achievement.
