North Glade Elementary School

Q: Is North Glade Elementary School a good school?

North Glade Elementary School ranks 1522 nd of 2256 Florida elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

North Glade Elementary School is a public elementary school in Miami Gardens, Florida, serving 193 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Miami-Dade school district, which is ranked 24th out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating.

Despite having a relatively high per-student spending ranging from $14,968 to $17,533 in recent years, North Glade Elementary consistently underperforms the Miami-Dade district and Florida state averages in academic proficiency. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math were 10-30 percentage points lower than the district and state in 2023-2024. Additionally, North Glade has a significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 28.4% to 34.7% in recent years, which is notably higher than the state and district averages. The school also serves a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 67.36% to 90.45% in recent years.

Interestingly, while North Glade Elementary has higher per-student spending and a higher concentration of economically disadvantaged students, the nearby schools, such as Barbara Hawkins Elementary and Myrtle Grove K-8 Center, generally outperform North Glade in terms of test scores and school rankings. This suggests that factors beyond just funding and student demographics may be contributing to the school's underperformance. Despite these challenges, the high per-student spending and the school's location within a district that is ranked 24th in the state suggest that there may be opportunities to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the school's issues and improve student outcomes.

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.
