Bridgeprep Academy Of Greater Miami

Summary:

Bridgeprep Academy Of Greater Miami is a public charter elementary school serving 424 students in grades K-5 in Miami, Florida, which is part of the Miami-Dade school district.

Bridgeprep Academy faces significant challenges, with a predominantly Hispanic student population (80.19%), consistently lower test scores than the district and state averages, a high chronic absenteeism rate of 27.8%, and a high percentage of students (73.58%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated but has consistently been in the bottom half of Florida elementary schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Nearby schools, such as Theodore R. And Thelma A. Gibson Charter School, Paul Laurence Dunbar K-8 Center, and Frederick R. Douglass Elementary, face similar challenges, while others, like Miami Children's Museum Charter School, have significantly higher test scores and a more diverse student population.

Despite increased spending per student, reaching $11,130 in the 2022-2023 school year, Bridgeprep Academy's academic performance has not improved. The school's student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.7 to 16.3 over the past few years, is comparable to nearby schools, suggesting that class size may not be a significant factor in the school's performance. Overall, Bridgeprep Academy Of Greater Miami appears to be underperforming compared to other schools in the district and state, and may need to implement more targeted interventions and support systems to address the challenges facing its student population.

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.
