Summary:
The 33177 zip code area of Miami, Florida is home to 9 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. These schools serve a diverse student population, with Hispanic students making up the majority and a significant portion of African American students. The data reveals stark performance differences among the schools, with some standout institutions like Herbert A. Ammons Middle School and Academir Charter School Preparatory consistently outperforming the district and state averages, while others struggle to meet proficiency standards.
The charter schools in the area, such as Academir Charter School Preparatory and Somerset Academy Charter Middle School, generally outperform the traditional public schools, suggesting that the charter model may be more effective in this context. However, the data also reveals high chronic absenteeism rates in several schools, particularly the lower-performing ones, which can be a significant barrier to student success.
The socioeconomic factors in the area, as indicated by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to the performance disparities and should be considered when developing strategies to support student achievement. Additionally, the presence of a secondary alternative school, Secondary Student Success Center 803, suggests a need for specialized programs to serve students who may not thrive in a traditional school setting. Overall, the data provides a comprehensive overview of the schools in the 33177 zip code area, highlighting both the strengths and challenges faced by the educational institutions serving this Miami-Dade community.
