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 My twins are in second grade and have been there since kindergarten. Each year, the kids have had incredibly caring teachers, excelled academically, and enjoyed the small, intimate setting this school brings. Parents, teachers and students all know each other, and I love the level of parental involvement I see from the others. Also, this school feeds into a great middle and high school. Close Quote

Open Quote We have spent 5 years at Partnership and we have been extremely happy with the staff and the teaching model. We have our 2nd child there now and look forward to being there 5 more years! Close Quote

Open Quote Partnership is a school that has some great teachers but the facilities of the school are not great. Library is very small and the playground is tiny. The requirement that you volunteer for 4 hours a month can be hard but we were ready to do it. We have not had the best experience with this school and will be taking our daughter out 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.
