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 Bullying is a major problem at this school. The administration, many teachers and students bully. The administration is apathetic and ineffective at stopping it, in fact their rules help to perpetuate the situation. They ensure that all students know that there must be 2 witnesses for any report to be made about a bully situation. Bullies are usually smart and either bully in front of friends who are in on it, or they bully away from spectators. Even when done in front of teachers, especially the band teacher, nothing is done. The teacher says that he cannot do anything to help. Band members continue to drop. I have removed one student from the school for bullying. I may remove my other due to apathy and bullying by teachers who are uncaring of student needs with respect to medical issues. This used to be one of the best schools in Modesto, CA. I have two happy graduates from the school's glory days, but it is currently a bully haven. 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.
