Despite the school's academic challenges, it appears to have relatively high per-student spending and a relatively low student-teacher ratio, suggesting that the issue may not be a lack of funding or resources, but rather how those resources are being utilized to support student learning and achievement. The school's high free and reduced-price lunch rate of 56.08% also indicates that a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which can present additional challenges for the school in terms of providing resources and support to these students.
