Open Quote The absolute worst! Would have been better off sending my child to the local public school near home. Bullying and racism runs rampant at this school. Teachers are more immature than the students. Teachers question students about their sexuality which is so wrong. Teachers start drama between students. The director of the school does not care about any complaints and will ignore issues. There is no resource officer ever on duty and fights happen causing harm to students and even teachers! Numerous students have been hurt this year due to neglect of teachers not doing their jobs! So do your child a huge favor and send them to another school! 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.
