Open Quote My son has been attending Orlando Science since his 6th grade year and I as a parent have been very pleased with the academics offered. The clubs can be awesome depending on what the child selects.The clubs are unlike most schools and the opportunities for the kids is endless. The staff personally know the children and parents. The only way a child would not do well in Orlando Science is because the parents or child are not applying themselves or involved. Most teachers are there to make sure your child does well and seem to genuinely enjoy their position as a teacher. Close Quote

Open Quote Most of the teachers don't have english speaking abilities that's why students have difficulties of understanding. 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.
