Open Quote The staff is very unprofessional and inexperienced. Everything they do is unorganized, its like they just think of things to do without putting any real thought into them. This is a new nice looking school but the staff is very poor. Not all staff but majority of them are there just to collect a check it seems. If you have another school that your child can attend, I would suggest you go to a different school because the staff including the current principal do not seem to take a lot of things serious concerning the children. They are probably OK as people but poor doing their job when it comes to these children. BEWARE of this school and the North Little Rock School district 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.
