Parkview Elementary School

Summary:

Parkview Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Opa Locka, Florida, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 182. 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 from SchoolDigger.

Parkview Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (80.22%) compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 61.26% to 89.61% African American students. The school also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.7% to 40.8% over the past few years, significantly higher than the surrounding schools, which have rates ranging from 14.2% to 39.9%. Academically, Parkview Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the Miami-Dade and Florida state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with its 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency rate at 27%, compared to 56% for Miami-Dade and 55% for Florida. Additionally, Parkview Elementary has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 76.92% to 94.67% over the past few years, higher than the surrounding schools, which range from 57.66% to 84.8%.

Despite the high spending per student at Parkview Elementary, ranging from $13,372 to $20,605 over the past few years, the school's academic outcomes remain significantly below the district and state averages. This raises questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and the need for a more targeted approach to address the specific needs of the student population. The combination of high poverty rates, low academic performance, and high chronic absenteeism at Parkview Elementary may indicate broader equity issues within the school system that require further investigation and targeted interventions.

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.
