Miami Coral Park Senior High

Q: Is Miami Coral Park Senior High a good school?

Miami Coral Park Senior High ranks 455 th of 807 Florida high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Miami Coral Park Senior High is a public high school in Miami, Florida, serving 2,190 students in grades 9-12. 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.

While Miami Coral Park Senior High maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 88.6% to 93.8% over the past few years, it faces several challenges. The school has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (96.67%) compared to surrounding schools, and has experienced a notable increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 23.9% in 2019-2020 to 36.3% in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school's test scores, particularly in Algebra 1, Geometry, and English Language Arts, are consistently lower than the district and state averages, indicating a need for improvement in academic performance.

Interestingly, the nearby Downtown Doral Charter Upper School, Doral Academy Charter High School, and Doral Performing Arts & Entertainment Academy consistently outperform Miami Coral Park Senior High in test scores, graduation rates, and overall school rankings, suggesting that the charter school model may be more effective in this area. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 58.77% to 81.09%, also indicates a higher proportion of students from low-income families, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges.

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.
