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.
Parents survey: safety and order — Mean favorable response share across the district's Safety and Order items: feeling safe, building condition, rules and discipline, violence, gangs, drugs and bullying (negatively worded items reverse-coded): agree on positive items, disagree on negative items; unknown answers remain nonfavorable. Uses only items asked in every survey year. Zero-total response distributions are missing.

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: Parents survey: safety and order · methodology.
