Andrews High School

Summary:

Andrews High School is a public charter high school located in Pompano Beach, Florida, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 375. The school is part of the Broward County school district, which is ranked 30th out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of the Broward County district, Andrews High School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Florida high schools over the past decade, with a ranking of 802 out of 807 schools in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's four-year graduation rates have been abysmal, ranging from 29.8% in 2018-2019 to a high of 61.4% in 2020-2021, significantly lower than the state and district averages. Additionally, Andrews High School has experienced chronic absenteeism rates between 90-95% in recent years, which is alarmingly high and likely a major contributor to the school's poor academic performance. Across all subject areas and grade levels, the school's proficiency rates on state assessments are dismal, often less than 10% proficient compared to the district and state averages, which are typically around 50-70% proficient.

When comparing Andrews High School to other nearby high schools in the Broward County district, the performance gap is staggering. For example, Pompano Beach High School and Broward Virtual Franchise both have significantly higher graduation rates (100%), test scores, and overall rankings, while schools like Coconut Creek High School and Monarch High School also outperform Andrews High School across multiple metrics. Despite the school's current struggles, the data indicates that there is room for improvement, and the school's transition to a public charter model and the recent shifts in student racial makeup may present opportunities for the school to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the root causes of its poor performance.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
