GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The elementary school has great teachers and is a great normal environment for elementary but the middle school is beyond amazing, the teachers and staff are very friendly and make everyone feel welcome, they win various awards in robotics and theatre , Many talented students have had their start here.

I am a parent of 3 students at Winston Park K-8. All 3 of my children are incredibly happy in the school. I feel my children are engaged in their learning and feel part of an extended family/ school community. The teachers are dedicated to the students and show a willingness to engage with parents when a student encounters difficulties , either with their academic studies or peer group. It is a school that highly regards and celebrates diversity of culture and promotes acceptance of all its students and their families. The teacher and staff are amazing!! I would not choose another school in Miami Dade County!! Go Wildcats!!

Students and teachers are friendly, but the learning environment can be brainwashing. Minorities should be accepted and not have a force of change. Being different is no excuse for having bad grades.
