Summary

Somerset Academy Boca Middle School is a small, high-performing public charter school in Boca Raton, FL, serving just 95 students in grades 6-8 within the Palm Beach district.

This school stands out for its exceptional academic results, consistently ranking in the top 10% of Florida middle schools despite having the lowest spending per student among its local peers. For example, 93% of 7th graders are proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 62% statewide, and 96% of students pass the Civics end-of-course exam. The school achieves these results with a lean budget of $10,314 per student, which is significantly less than nearby Boca Raton Community Middle School ($15,210 per student) and Carver Middle School ($16,156 per student). While the student-to-teacher ratio is higher than average at 19.6, the school's focused academic culture and efficient resource use produce top-tier outcomes.

Families considering Somerset Academy should note its small size offers a personalized environment, but it also means a few students can heavily influence metrics like chronic absenteeism, which recently rose to 19.6% after being at 0% during the pandemic. For a direct comparison, the area's top magnet school, Don Estridge High Technical Middle School, has a slight edge in advanced STEM subjects like Algebra 1 (100% vs. 96%), but Somerset Academy excels in core literacy and math skills. This makes it a compelling alternative for families seeking a tight-knit school with elite academic performance, especially when contrasted with the larger, less academically rigorous Boca Raton Community Middle School just 1.46 miles away.
