Preschool | Grades K-5 | Hillsborough

Hope Preparatory Academy is located in Tampa, FL and is one of 176 elementary schools in Hillsborough School District. It is a charter school that serves 84 students in grades K-5.

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.

Hope Preparatory 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 Hope Preparatory Academy's test results to learn more about school performance.

In 2011, Hope Preparatory Academy had 11 students for every full-time equivalent teacher. The Florida average is 15 students per full-time equivalent teacher. Learn more about Hope Preparatory Academy's students and teachers. more
