Summary

Somerset Academy Canyons High School in Boynton Beach, FL, is a public charter school serving 1,024 students in grades 9-12 within the Palm Beach district, which ranks in the 53rd percentile among Florida districts.

This school stands out for its perfect 100% graduation rate and exceptional English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, with 83% of 10th graders proficient—far exceeding the district average of 65%. However, it faces significant challenges: math proficiency is low at 44% in both Algebra 1 and Geometry, well below district and state averages. The school also has a very high student-teacher ratio of 43.8:1, more than double that of nearby schools like Park Vista Community High School (17:1), and spends just $10,347 per student, compared to $14,019 at Park Vista. A striking paradox is the 34.5% chronic absenteeism rate, which is much higher than the district average of 23.4% and nearly triple the rate at Dr. Joaquin Garcia High School (20.2%). This suggests a flexible, credit-recovery-focused model that helps students graduate despite absences, but may impact academic rigor and engagement.

Compared to its closest peer, South Technical Academy, which also has a 100% graduation rate, Somerset lags in math (44% vs. 66% in Algebra 1) and has a much higher absenteeism rate (34.5% vs. 16.5%). While Somerset excels in humanities, its lean operational model—with low spending and large class sizes—may contribute to weaker math performance and lower student engagement. For parents, this school offers a strong path to graduation and literacy, but may require extra support for math and attendance.
