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 Our one year there was complete torture. Retaliation was normal towards students and parents who didn’t agree with school staff and PTA. Segregation & isolation were all common. One year there was too long. I don’t recommend anyone send their kids here or work here. The 2016/2017 principal and Office Mgr refuse to follow their own policies and procedures. If you call them out, you will fall victim to their relentless attacks on you in every way. Beware. Close Quote

Open Quote The school climate is academic based which is good. If you have a child with special needs or is different in any way do not send your child to this school. He/she will end up eating lunch alone (as none of the monitors seem to notice), be teased and bullied without any assistance from staff members. The school climate is very exclusionary which includes the office staff and principal as well as the student population. 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.
