My daughter is a 2014 graduate from Clearwater Intermediate & it was the best decision for her that I ever made to apply and send her there. Colleen was honor roll all thru her time there, all of the kids were in the same learning-boat so no one was bullied, I enjoyed being on the PTA to support the kids & interacting with the staff. I couldn't ask for a better experience. Colleen is now an EMT, first on the road with Sunstar & now in Morton Plant ER, so she's done very well for herself. This is all thanks to Clearwater Intermediate's support & teaching. 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.
