Summary

Somerset Preparatory Academy Charter School At North Lauder is a K-8 charter school in North Lauderdale, FL, serving 708 students within the Broward district, and it stands out for serving a highly economically disadvantaged community, with nearly 97% of its students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

The school has achieved a remarkable turnaround in student attendance. Its chronic absenteeism rate dropped from 27.8% in 2022-2023 to just 3.1% in 2023-2024, which is dramatically lower than the district average of 33.6% and far better than nearby North Lauderdale Elementary School, which has a 42.9% rate. This improvement is a strong foundation for academic growth. Academically, the school shows a clear pattern of strength in math, especially in middle school. In 2024-2025, 6th and 7th-grade math proficiency rates (67% and 61%) actually exceeded both district and state averages. The school also excels in high school readiness, with 82% of students proficient in Algebra 1 and Civics in 2025-2026, and 90% proficient in Geometry in 2022-2023—all well above district and state levels.

The biggest challenge for Somerset is English Language Arts (ELA), where scores consistently lag behind. For example, 3rd-grade ELA proficiency was just 37% in 2025-2026, compared to the district's 64%. The school also has a high student-teacher ratio of 33.7:1, roughly double that of traditional public schools like Tamarac Elementary School (16.7:1). While its overall state ranking is still below average, the school's positive trajectory in attendance and math performance suggests it is building a strong base for future improvement.
