LEAKEY SCHOOL

LEAKEY SCHOOL is a Title I public school that is part of the LEAKEY ISD school district, located in LEAKEY, TX with about 309 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 12th 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 26 teachers, LEAKEY SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1.
