Summary

Bonita Springs Charter School is a public charter elementary and middle school serving 1,320 students in grades K-8 in Bonita Springs, Florida, which is part of the Lee County School District.

One of the school's key strengths is its consistently strong academic performance, as evidenced by its test scores that outpace the Lee County and Florida state averages across a wide range of standardized assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Bonita Springs Charter School had an 88% proficiency rate in Algebra 1, compared to 49% for Lee County and 60% for the state of Florida. This pattern of academic excellence holds true across most grade levels and subject areas.

However, the school does face some challenges, including higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to the state average, ranging from 19.3% to 36.4% over the past few years. Additionally, Bonita Springs Charter School serves a relatively high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 39.62% to 44.16% over the past few years, suggesting the school serves a population with greater economic needs. While the school operates more efficiently than some nearby traditional public schools, with lower spending per student and higher student-teacher ratios, this may impact the level of individual attention and support available to students.
