Enrollment and teachers

  • Federal count: 69 students in the 2023-24 school year, with four full-time-equivalent teachers, according to the NCES directory. That works out to about 17 students per teacher.

How admission works

Apply through the school: its website’s Apply Now link leads to the Somerset Academy Wellington application, which has a separate form for high school. Returning students re-enroll. The site also has a page on controlled open enrollment, Florida’s rule that lets families choose a public school with room outside their zone.

The site does not publish lottery dates. Under Florida’s charter school law, section 1002.33, a charter school that receives more applications than it has seats must fill them by random lottery. Call the school at 561-421-5510 to ask about open seats.
