PASSPORT CHARTER

PASSPORT CHARTER is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the ORANGE school district, located in ORLANDO, FL with about 178 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 9 teachers, PASSPORT CHARTER has a student/teacher ratio of about 19:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

PASSPORT CHARTER School, located at 5221 Curry Ford Road in Orlando, Florida, operates as a specialized educational institution within the Orange County Public Schools (OCPS) district. As a charter school, it offers an alternative academic environment designed to provide students with a curriculum that often emphasizes unique instructional methods or focused learning pathways tailored to meet the needs of the local community.

Because the school is integrated into the OCPS system, it adheres to district-wide educational standards while maintaining the autonomy characteristic of a charter model. Families interested in enrollment or specific academic programming are encouraged to utilize the official district website at www.ocps.net to access the latest school performance reports, application procedures, and specific mission statements regarding their educational approach.
