As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote Are you kidding? What scores are you reading? Crosby compared to other schools, I guess are doing ok, if that's your standard. Have you ever looked outside your "Louisville, KY" bubble and looked at how Crosby Middle compares to other middle schools?--Especially in other states? I guess its ok if your child doesn't plan to live anywhere outside Kentucky, maybe get a factory job. It rates very poorly; its over-populated, under-served and the learning environment is not that desirable. I had no choice at the time to send my 3 kids there, and I regret it. The reading and math readiness scores drop tremendously from Elementary to Middle school.
The English and Science Curriculum's are a joke! They don't study the classics and the school standards are low-I guess that's why they seem to do well on tests overall?(but still not great compared to other states) Kentucky schools overall this past year, have had a 5% drop in reaching Federal proficiency targets;only 55.6% made AYP for 2009-2010 under requirements of the federal No Child Left Behind Act. An example of this school's low expectations is that the teachers give students credit for copying down their homework in their agendas-really? Then they give them partial credit for just trying-really? Students who need extra attention fall behind, and the kids who could be excelling fall behind due to boredom and eventually slack off. The teachers baby these students way too much and not enough emphasis is put on excellence. This school is for average students with no problems...A glorified babysitting service. 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.
