Preschool | Grades 6-8 | Polk

Bok Academy is located in Lake Wales, FL and is one of 54 middle schools in Polk School District. It is a charter school that serves 542 students in grades 6-8.

Charter schools are public schools, but differ from traditional public schools in that they are independent and are operated by educators, parents, community leaders, educational entrepreneurs, or others. Funding for charter schools is based on designated local or state educational organizations. Those organizations are responsible for monitoring and assessing the quality and effectiveness of education, but permit the schools to operate outside of the traditional public school education system.

Bok Academy did not make AYP in 2011. Under No Child Left Behind, a school makes Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) if it achieves the minimum levels of improvement determined by the state of Florida in terms of student performance and other accountability measures. See Bok Academy's test results to learn more about school performance.

In 2011, Bok Academy had 17 students for every full-time equivalent teacher. The Florida average is 15 students per full-time equivalent teacher. Learn more about Bok Academy's students and teachers. more
