Better than 91% of Florida elementary schools

Summary

Somerset Preparatory Academy Sunset is a K-8 charter school in the Kendall/Sunset area of Miami, FL, serving 350 students as part of the Miami-Dade school district. This school is a consistent high-performer, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for four of the last five years and ranking in the 91st percentile among Florida elementary schools. With about 42% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, it offers a strong academic program that stands out even among other top-tier schools in the area.

One of the biggest differentiators is the school's exceptional middle school performance. In 8th grade math, 92% of students were proficient, far exceeding the district average of 65% and outperforming nearby K-8 centers like Devon Aire K-8 Center (74%) and Frank Crawford Martin K-8 Center (48%). The school also shines in civics, with a 98% proficiency rate on the Civics EOC, a score it has maintained for four consecutive years. Additionally, chronic absenteeism is remarkably low at 12.1%, roughly half the district average of 28.2% and significantly better than nearby schools like Gloria Floyd Elementary School (24.1%) and Ben Gamla Charter School (18.7%).

Interestingly, Somerset Prep Sunset achieves these results with a relatively modest budget of $9,593 per student, the lowest among nearby schools with available data—compare that to Gloria Floyd's $24,065 or Kendale Elementary School's $17,971. While the school excels in most subjects, 4th grade math is a relative weak point at 73% proficiency, trailing behind top K-5 schools like Somerset Academy Bay (93%) and Somerset Academy Kendall (100%). The school shares a campus with Ben Gamla Charter School, but offers more consistent performance across all grades and lower absenteeism. This school's strong recovery from pandemic-era dips and its place within a cluster of high-performing Somerset schools make it a reliable choice for families seeking academic excellence through 8th grade.
