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 Horrible. Administration is listless. The principals are “all lip no service.” The technology is a chaotic mess poorly instituted and confusing even for parents who excel with tech, let alone their kids. One teacher even put in writing that in class students take priority over virtual students. There is no communication from most teachers even if I beg them to inform me. They take no proactive action to help a struggling student until after we respond about failing grades with no warning. We finally had a counselor reach out almost three months into the year. I’ve been chastised by both principals more than once for emails that take the tone of this review. Who do they think they are? I’m the parent. Not the student. This is another arrogant, overrated example of the failing public school system. And the new principal is way over his head. I’ve asked him many times to instruct the teachers to give me a heads up when there are homework issues (incomplete etc) and they simply refuse to partner with me so my son can succeed. This school is a horrible disappointment. 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.
