Original Research by School Decision on Eagles Nest Middle Charter School
Eagles Nest Middle Charter School is a small charter middle school serving grades six through eight in Coral Springs, within Broward County. The enrollment is very small, making it one of the more intimate school settings a family might consider at the middle school level. That scale shapes almost everything about the experience here, from the peer environment to what the state testing data can and cannot tell us.
On Florida's FAST assessments for the most recent school year, math proficiency in sixth and seventh grade came in solidly, with a clear majority of students scoring proficient at both grade levels. Eighth-grade math results were suppressed by the state, meaning the group was too small to report publicly, so no conclusion can be drawn there. In ELA, sixth and seventh grade results were reported at a lower rate than math, with roughly three in five students reaching proficiency at those levels. Eighth-grade ELA showed a somewhat stronger result. The eighth-grade science assessment came in at around the same level as ELA. Across subjects, math is the relative strength here, while reading and writing scores are something a parent may want to explore further with the school, particularly around what supports are in place for students who are not yet at grade level. No multi-year trend data was available, so it is not possible to say whether these results are improving, holding steady, or declining.
The student population is heavily concentrated among Black students, with small numbers of Hispanic and white students and no reported enrollment from other racial groups. Nearly the entire student body qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch, meaning this is a high-poverty school by federal measure. Data on students with IEPs and English learners was not reported, so those dimensions of the student experience are not visible in the available data. The comparison fact-set for Broward County districts flags that the school's cohort was too small to produce a meaningful proficiency ranking relative to other entities in the county, so no county-level positioning is possible.
Because enrollment is this small, the school sits outside the typical range where course variety, clubs, athletics, and elective depth tend to accumulate. Program offerings were not reported in the available data, so families should ask the school directly what is available beyond core academics. The same applies to staffing ratios, discipline practices, and attendance figures, none of which were in the data.
The school is located on North University Drive in Coral Springs, a suburban city in the northern part of Broward County. Detailed community context for Coral Springs was not retrieved before research resources were exhausted, so specific information about the city's character, employers, or walkability is not available here. What can be said is that Coral Springs sits in one of South Florida's larger suburban counties, and the local housing market reflects that. Home values in the immediate zip code are well above both the Florida state median and the national median, and rents are also elevated, with rent consuming a very high share of a typical household's income at current market rates. For families already in the area, that context is likely familiar; for those relocating, the affordability picture is tighter than in most of the country.
Broward County's district brief returned no confirmed parent-relevant changes before the search budget was exhausted, so no district-level developments are noted here.
Eagles Nest is a very small, high-poverty charter school with a predominantly Black student body and a focused middle grades program. Math proficiency is a relative strength. Reading results and the absence of detailed program, staffing, and support data are areas where a parent should press the school with direct questions before enrolling.
