This school is okay, but the students need to learn proper edicate. Many are disrespectful, rude, and very disruptive.. The teachers are okay, many are nice though. The bathrooms have gotten a lot since last year. Ms. Lopez, amazing prinicple!! You can tell she really cares about her school, students, staff, ect. Now teachers..I wish they would do a teacher training to maybe help them rephrase their sentences to help the students in their class feel more comfortable.. The school's lunches are disgusting. I really hope that it improves. Michelle Obama ruined it. You can't make cheap food healthy!! They need to give us our fried corn dogs back. They have salad options, you cannot force someone to your healthy lifestyle!! Close Quote

I went here for three years and they have been the best three years of my life. Teachers here bend-backwards for their kids to succeed. I've never been to another school like this one. It's amazing. 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.
