Success Academy is Growing Our Community and Opening 5 Elementary Schools in Miami, Florida in 2027.

Kids Love Learning Here

Your child will spend each day playing, building, making friends, and trying new things through daily learning, arts, and sports. They’ll grow, feel proud of what they can do, and be ready for school—and life.

Proven Results

Our students succeed. By the end of kindergarten, every child is reading, and that’s just the beginning. They continue to score among the top students in Math and English across the state.

All Your Child Needs — Free

From the first uniform set to ipads, supplies, sports gear, instruments, and after-school programs, we make sure your child has what they need — at no cost to families.

Questions? We have answers!

Why do you share space with a high school?

Sharing space with high schoolers gives our students access to beautiful facilities they wouldn’t normally have—auditorums, gyms, track and fields. We have safely operated schools this way for 20 years, by thoughtfully using available space and coordinating schedules and shared areas as needed. Through partnership with school teams, we work hard and ensure a safe, consistent experience for all students.

When are you opening?

Success Academy Miami will open in Florida for the 2027 school year. We will begin with kindergarten through 1st grade, with plans to expand up to middle school in future years.

Does it cost anything to attend a Success Academy school?

No, we are a free public charter school! Success Academy also provides all children with necessary school supplies such as ipads, software, pencils, and notebooks, arts and athletics supplies, as well as trips to museums and performances. No fundraising necessary, and no catch for families.

How does the lottery work?

Our free lottery is held each year and results are distributed to families via email and published in the application dashboard soon thereafter.

There are two possible lottery outcomes: acceptance or placement on the waitlist. Your lottery results will inform you of your status at each school you applied for. In the months following the lottery, waitlisted families may be offered acceptance to SA locations. These updates will be relayed to families by telephone and/or email and shared on the application dashboard, so please ensure your contact information is up to date.

When do applications open?

We will announce applications opening in August 2026. Please stay tuned and join the priority list to be the first to receive this information!

Who can attend?

For the 2027 school year, we will accept students entering Kindergarten and 1st grade. Join the priority list to be notified when applications open!
