The heart of our mission is academic excellence. In collaboration with families, Allapattah faculty and staff will challenge students to reach their highest potential. Together, we’ll embrace diversity, foster growth, and prioritize engagement. We will cultivate a bright community of learners who are well-prepared for the future.
Our vision is to become a center of learning that extends beyond the schoolhouse doors, where students are able to articulate future goals and actively work towards those goals as independent learners fostered through a student centered and caring environment.
Hunter (Forest) Green & Gold (Symbolizes growth, stability & wisdom)
Gator (Symbolizes stealth & survival)
The Naming Committee for our school was dedicated to select a name that was geographically and historically relevant to our site. The Seminole Indians, who lived on the property over 200 years ago, referred to the area as Allapattah Flats. Allapattah comes from the Seminole word for alligator, hence the symbol for our mascot.
Our students are awarded Gator Bucks for displaying positive behavior expectations.
Students are able to use Gator Bucks to attend various school-wide incentive activities as well as elementary grade-level activities sponsored by each team.
