While the school's academic performance in Science is higher than the state average, the school's leadership and community should focus on improving instructional practices and support in English Language Arts and Mathematics to better serve its students. Additionally, addressing the underlying causes of the school's high chronic absenteeism rate should be a priority to ensure students are engaged and successful.
