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 This school has gone way down hill. Teacher turn over rate is very high due to administrative policies that do not follow the First comes learning way of thinking. Test scores are low and staff is more worried about uniform violations than education. Close Quote

Open Quote This school is amazing! The staff work with and mold students to achieving their best! The middle school CSAP scores have shown so much growth and they have the top scores in the district! This is not just school, but a family. Close Quote

Open Quote Our son has attended BC Charter since Kindergarten and is now in Second grade. He has thrived and the teachers have been very communicative with us. His first grade teacher was a bit of a dissapointment but even with her challenges, he still enjoyed learning and advanced his skills in all areas. We are very pleased as it is our neighborhood school. Close Quote

Open Quote I was hesitant to place my son in Belle Creek Charter because of the rating. I am happy to report, I am very pleased so far. Overall, we are happy with parent-teacher communication, level of education and extra curricular activities. I would recommend giving Belle Creek Charter a chance. 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.
