all i have to say, is that school amazes me. i went there for 4 months. wasnt suspended or in a fight. im white. im a female. im 13. &i went there in the 7th grade whichim now in 8th. and im not a good influence. i have a bad attitude and im a smartass. but the school treated me like i never made a mistake in my life. they didnt hold any of them against me. i learned my lesson. i got good grades. &met good people. yes, most students are black but that doesnt mean anything. i loved it. i will never forget mattie v rutherford alternative education center for as long as i live. i would love for my kid to attend there. i think every school should be just like mattie v.

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.
