We are Apex Innovation Academy — a tuition-free, A-rated STEM charter school in Miami Gardens, FL, serving students from PK3 through 8th Grade with a relentless commitment to academic excellence and character.
Apex Innovation Academy was founded on a simple belief: every child in Miami Gardens deserves access to a world-class education, regardless of zip code. We opened our doors to serve a community where families wanted more — more attention, more rigor, and more opportunity — than the surrounding public schools could provide.
Today, we are proud to be a Florida Department of Education A-rated school for three consecutive years and the recipient of the 2025 Title I Distinguished School Award for outstanding academic achievement. With 92% of our students scoring proficient or above in Math and ELA on the 2025 FSA, and a ranking in the top 10% of charter schools in Miami-Dade County, our results speak for themselves.
But awards and test scores only tell part of the story. What truly defines Apex Innovation Academy is the culture inside our walls — a place where students are challenged, supported, celebrated, and prepared to lead in a global economy. We are building the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and leaders, one student at a time.
Everything we do — from classroom instruction to after-school programs — is grounded in five core pillars that shape the Apex experience for every student and family.
We hold every student to high standards and provide the individualized support needed to reach them — from honors courses to 1-on-1 tutoring and small-group interventions.
Science, technology, engineering, and math are woven into every subject area through hands-on projects, real-world problem solving, robotics, coding, and engineering design.
We believe strong character is just as important as strong academics. We cultivate respect, responsibility, integrity, and empathy in every student, every day.
Parents are our partners. We communicate proactively through the Remind app, parent portal, monthly newsletters, and bi-weekly phone blasts to keep every family connected.
Our educational model goes beyond textbooks. Every lesson at Apex Innovation Academy is designed to engage students actively, connect learning to real life, and prepare them for what comes next.
We integrate science, technology, engineering, and math across all subject areas through hands-on projects and real-world problem solving — so students don't just learn content, they apply it.
With smaller class sizes, individualized learning plans, 1-on-1 tutoring, and a dedicated ESE coordinator providing IEP, 504, and on-site speech therapy services, no student is left behind.
After-school enrichment runs Monday–Friday from 3:30–5:30 PM. Students can join clubs like Robotics, Coding, Math Olympiad, Science Bowl, Chess, and Debate — or simply get homework help and tutoring.
Honors courses in Math, ELA, and Science are available for grades 6–8. Our 8th graders can earn real college credit through dual enrollment at Miami Dade College, giving them a head start on their future.
Behind every successful student at Apex Innovation Academy is a team of caring, credentialed educators who show up every day to inspire, challenge, and support the whole child.
