How admission works
Charter schools are tuition-free public schools sponsored by Pasco County Schools and run by their own boards. They have no attendance zones: families apply to each school, and a charter school keeps its own calendar and hours. Pasco County Schools lists them in its charter school directory.
For 2026-27, open enrollment ran Nov. 3 to Dec. 5, 2025. Every application filed in that window had an equal chance, and where a grade had more applicants than seats, “a system-generated, random lottery” ran Dec. 12, 2025, the school’s enrollment page says. Results go to families by email and on their SchoolMint dashboard. The page had not been updated with 2027-28 dates when we checked.

State report card
Florida grades every public school A to F on the share of possible points it earns from state test results, learning gains and, for middle schools, middle school acceleration; high schools also earn points for graduation rate and college and career acceleration, according to the Florida Department of Education. In the state’s 2026 file an A takes 65% of possible points or more for a combination school such as a K-8.
