KIPP Miami-Liberty City

Summary:

KIPP Miami-Liberty City is a public charter school in Miami, Florida, serving 1,048 students in grades KG-10, with a predominantly African American student population.

While KIPP Miami-Liberty City spends significantly more per student ($22,483) compared to nearby schools like Academy For Innovative Education, the school faces unique challenges. It has a much higher chronic absenteeism rate of 45.9%, compared to the Miami-Dade district rate of 24.5% and the Florida state rate. Additionally, KIPP Miami-Liberty City students generally perform below district and state averages on standardized tests, with proficiency rates ranging from 26% to 64% across various subjects, compared to 49% to 70% for Miami-Dade and 45% to 67% for Florida.

The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 98.66%, indicates a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students. While KIPP Miami-Liberty City's student-teacher ratio of 17.1 is higher than nearby schools, the data suggests that additional targeted interventions and support may be necessary to improve student outcomes and close the achievement gap with the district and state averages.

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.
