About Worshiper's House of Prayer Academy

Worshiper's House of Prayer Academy serves 90 students in kindergarten through eighth grade in Miami's diverse community. This small elementary school maintains an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 7.9 to 1 with 11 full-time equivalent teachers, allowing for personalized attention and close student-teacher relationships. The school has earned a strong MySchoolScout rating of 9.2 out of 10, reflecting its commitment to student success.

While ranked at #847 out of 1,462 schools statewide (42nd percentile), the academy's small size and low ratio create an intimate learning environment where each student can receive individualized support. Located at 8350 NW 7th Avenue, the school serves a working-class neighborhood where the median household income is $33,629 and nearly one-third of families face economic challenges. Despite these circumstances, the community shows resilience, with median home values of $317,200 reflecting the area's stability and potential for growth.

The academy's structure as a regular public school means it follows state curriculum standards while maintaining its distinctive character. With only 90 students across nine grade levels, families can expect their children to be well-known by staff and to develop lasting relationships with classmates. The school operates within Miami-Dade County's large suburban setting, providing access to urban resources while maintaining a close-knit community feel.

What Parents Should Know

With an enrollment of 90 students, Worshiper's House of Prayer 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 7.9:1, Worshiper's House of Prayer 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, Worshiper's House of Prayer 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.
