CULTURAL ARTS ACADEMY CHARTER SCHOOL AT SPRING CREEK

Located at 1400 Linden Blvd in Brooklyn, New York, the Cultural Arts Academy Charter School at Spring Creek operates as an open, independent charter district serving families within a large city environment in the New York-Newark-Jersey City metropolitan area. Operating a single school facility, the district delivers early childhood and elementary education spanning kindergarten through sixth grade. As a standalone local educational agency for federal programs, the academy provides an accessible, urban learning community tailored to support students through their crucial early academic development years.

During the academic year, the district serves a coeducational student body of 221 children—comprising 109 female and 112 male students—with the highest grade enrollments concentrated in the early elementary years. The student population represents a diverse urban community, primarily enrolling Black and Hispanic learners alongside multiracial, White, and American Indian students. To ensure strong classroom engagement and comprehensive wraparound services, the district maintains a robust workforce of 66 full-time equivalent (FTE) staff members. This includes 42 FTE teachers, 6 instructional aides, and 18 support staff, creating a remarkably well-resourced learning environment characterized by small effective class sizes and extensive dedicated support.
