About Mot Academy

MOT Academy serves 41 students from transitional first grade through 12th grade in Miami's 33183 ZIP code area. This small regular public school maintains an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 6.8 to 1 with 6 full-time equivalent teachers, allowing for highly individualized attention and instruction. The school has earned strong recognition with a MySchoolScout rating of 9.2 out of 10 and ranks #349 out of 1462 schools statewide, placing it in the 76th percentile among Florida schools.

This impressive performance reflects the school's commitment to academic excellence despite its compact size. MOT Academy's intimate learning environment provides students with personalized educational experiences that larger schools often cannot offer. The small enrollment allows teachers to know each student well and tailor instruction to individual needs and learning styles.

The school draws families from a stable suburban community where the median household income is $64,714 and median home values reach $346,600.

MOT Academy is situated in Miami-Dade County's large suburban landscape, providing students with a close-knit school experience within a diverse metropolitan area.

What Parents Should Know

With an enrollment of 41 students, Mot Academy is a smaller school where families often find a close-knit community atmosphere. Smaller settings can mean more individual attention from teachers and staff, though they may offer fewer extracurricular options than larger schools.

With a student-teacher ratio of 6.8:1, Mot Academy offers a notably low ratio compared to the national average. This typically means smaller class sizes and more opportunities for one-on-one interaction between students and teachers.

As a private school, Mot Academy operates independently from the local public school district. Families considering this school should inquire about tuition costs, financial aid availability, and the admissions process. Private schools are not required to follow the same curriculum standards as public schools, which can be either an advantage or a consideration depending on your priorities.
