Open Quote If you have any other options nearby, take them. This school is rough. The kids are loud, rambunctious, mean, rude...and then there are the teachers and staff. I dealt with 2 kindergarten teachers that were obviously over teaching and would rather hit the bottle every night and the school counselor couldn't care less about students or parents. Rude rude rude! And good luck getting a phone call returned. We left and will never return. My son is already less stressed and he's in a summer camp at a school down the street. Andersen was so loud and stressful. Ugh. So glad to be out of there! So unprofessional. Make the extra arrangements and take the extra time to drive to a school south of Andersen. You won't regret it. 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.
