Went here from 2014-2018. Freshman/Sophmore years were fine, everything went downhill in Junior year when there was a rampant Neo-Nazi problem and the administration refused to deal with it.
I loved the teachers dearly, except one. The real problem was with the administration. They not only allowed a Neo-Nazi student to be Student Body Vice President, they let 3/4 students who made a human swastika stay, only expelling one. They let students yell "Kill all Jews" in the hallways with no repercussions, while they bullied the students who showed concern - My senior year schedule was all sorts of messed up, even when seniors supposedly get priority when it comes to class assignments.
Tiffany needs to be fired. There was gross antisemitic behavior on her part. 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.
