St. Agatha Catholic School - Miami

What St. Agatha Catholic School - Miami does

St. Agatha Catholic School is a private, non-profit PK2 through 8th grade Catholic elementary school operating under the governance of the Archdiocese of Miami since its founding in 1983 at 1125 SW 107th Avenue, Miami, Florida. It serves approximately 682 students with a Christ-centered academic curriculum covering religion, science, English, literature, mathematics, computer science, social studies, Spanish, art, music, and physical education, augmented by two specialized programs: the Padre Pio Program (established August 1999) for students with learning variances and the Mother Teresa Program (established August 2005) for students with developmental delays. The school's teaching corps is notable for its tenure — 75% of faculty have ten or more years of experience and 50% hold advanced degrees — and the Padre Pio and Mother Teresa programs have served as models for other elementary schools in the Archdiocese for over twenty years.

The school's technology stack is education-standard rather than proprietary: every classroom has an interactive whiteboard (I-board), a computer lab and iPad Cafe support digital learning, and middle school students participate in a 1:1 laptop program. Administrative and instructional operations rely on FACTS (Nelnet) for tuition management, PlusPortals for grades and communication, Meal Magic Family Portal for cafeteria accounts, Reading Eggs and Reading Plus for reading instruction, eCampus for textbooks, and VIRTUS for child-protection compliance. Athletics (Cross-Country, Basketball, Volleyball, Soccer, Baseball, Flag Football), before/after care, a cafeteria program, and a portfolio of extracurricular clubs (Choir, Chess, Media Kids, Art Club, Yearbook, etc.) round out the offering, alongside a dual-enrollment pathway for qualifying middle schoolers into Archdiocese of Miami high schools.

Revenue is generated through recurring tuition and fees (with a $50 one-time application fee, multi-student discounts, and active-parishioner discounts) plus cafeteria transaction fees and ancillary program charges. The school accepts four Florida state scholarship programs — Family Empowerment Scholarship for Educational Options (FES-EO), Family Empowerment Scholarship for Students with Unique Abilities (FES-UA), Step Up for Students, and AAA Scholarship Foundation — broadening access. Enrollment is direct-to-family via an online application, walking tours, and parish-driven referrals, with admission prioritized for siblings, St. Agatha parishioners, active Catholics, and then non-Catholics. The school is fully accredited by the Florida Catholic Conference and held up by the surrounding parish community of more than 4,200 registered members.
