| School year | Grade |
|---|---|
| 2025-26 | A (66% of possible points) |
| 2024-25 | B |
| 2023-24 | B |

Attendance zone and feeder schools
Check any address with the district’s Find My School tool or the Sunrise Middle zone map (PDF). About 85% of the zone’s area is in Fort Lauderdale and about 12% in Wilton Manors.
Comparing the district’s attendance boundaries:
- Elementary schools that feed it: Harbordale (about 36% of the zone’s area), Bennett (20%), Bayview (18%), Wilton Manors Elementary (12%), North Side (6%), Walker (5%) and part of Thurgood Marshall (3%).

North Fork Elementary closed. On Jan. 21, 2026, the School Board consolidated North Fork Elementary into Croissant Park, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Thurgood Marshall and Walker elementaries for 2026-27, according to the district’s May 12 Redefining Our Schools update (PDF). Broward County’s boundary map data still draws the old North Fork zone, so the shares on this page treat it separately; the district’s 2026-27 zone maps and Find My School tool are the authority.
No proposal in the district’s Redefining Our Schools plan for 2026-27, presented Oct. 6, names Sunrise Middle.
