Outliers
Miami-Dade schools ranked against their peer group of up to 40 demographically similar schools (same school level, sector and magnet status). Direction-adjusted — a higher percentile always means better outcomes.
FAST ELA grade 8: percent level 3+ — Share of grade-8 test takers scoring level 3 or above on the spring FAST ELA (PM3); FSA before 2022-23.
| School | Sector | Region | Grade | Value | vs. peers | vs. district |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| KINLOCH PARK MIDDLE SCHOOL #6331 · Middle | District-run | Central region | C | 26.0% | ||
| MIAMI COMMUNITY CHARTER MIDDLE SCHOOL #6048 · Middle | Charter | — | C | 27.0% | ||
| CITRUS GROVE K-8 CENTER #0801 · K-8 | District-run | Central region | D | 19.0% |
Direction: Higher is better.
Peer group: up to 40 nearest neighbours on z-scored Black, Hispanic and White shares, English-learner share, economic disadvantage and log enrollment, all from the 2024-25 state files; hard filters on school level, sector and whole-school magnet status. Schools with fewer than 5 candidates have no peer percentile.
Residual z: weighted least squares of the value on the same-year shares, log enrollment, level, sector and magnet status; z = residual ÷ √(model error² + sampling error²); cells with fewer than 30 students in the relevant grades are not fitted. The two methods disagree on some schools by design: the flip-diff and the pre-registered checks are on the residual-z page.
Suppressed cells (fewer than 10 students) are hidden. Definitions: FAST ELA grade 8: percent level 3+ · methodology.
