Open Quote Alexander II is a math and science magnet school for grades pre-k-5th. Alex II seeks to stretch the imagination, intellect, and leadership of its students while developing the moral characteristics that impart identity and purpose with the help of PBIS, STEM, and Leader in Me, we strive to be the best. I am a teacher there, and I could not imagine myself any place else. The staff and parents are always willing to go above and beyond to help our students succeed. Close Quote

Open Quote Worst school experience ever!!! We wish we've never attended this school. Some of the teachers there are lacking professional skills and shouldn't be working in the field at all! Only our parents' effort didn't let them to destroy our child's love for learning and trust in people! 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.
