As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote The dedication of the teaching staff, administration, and support staff has made a remarkable difference in the lives of children whose parents have much less resources. This school shows that their is truth in the statement, "people make the difference". Close Quote

Open Quote This school is horrible. The front office administration needs training in empathy, listening skills and any other social training available. They have a very brash demeanor when dealing with parents and kids. As far as teachers go I can only speak from my experience with one ( I pulled my daughter out of northbelt the first opportunity I had) My daughters 2nd grade teacher would allow her students to write in pen,crayon, markers for daily assignments and homework. She allowed her handwriting to be outside of the lines and in random spots on the page (after expressing my concerns to her she said she was just satisfied that they actually did their work) Homework was not mandatory and schoolwork and homework turned in would be turned back to parents without any grades marked on them or without corrections made. she said she didn't want to discourage students) I never knew how well my daughter was doing and as a parent grades is a way to keep track of any needed improvement. Communication between teachers and parents is horrible. Parents go on the assumption that since there are no grades or any tracking of grades than their child is doing ok. I must also note that this teacher was teacher of the year 2 years in a row. Which says a lot about this school and the rest of the teachers. My daughter left that school with horrible study habits and knowing less than when she started. If you want to avoid a headache pray that your child is not zoned to this school. The level of expectations for the students is extremely low. In fact in 2012 I received a letter from the district that since Northbelt did not meet the states expectation when testing their students that parents have an option of sending their students to a different school. It's only a matter of time before this school is closed down. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
