About Big Springs Charter School
-
Big Springs Charter School is located in Leakey, TX and is one of 5 schools in Big Springs Charter School District. It is a charter school that serves 56 students in grades 5-12.
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.
Big Springs Charter School made AYP in 2007. 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 Texas in terms of student performance and other accountability measures. See Big Springs Charter School's test results to learn more about school performance.
