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 This school is Horrible the principal is racist. My daughter is black and is a straight A student she had to test to get in Ruppel and she got in with flying colors. It’s a-lot of bullying that takes place at Ruppel and all the principal do is talk down to you and tell you your child is not getting bullied. I had to take my daughter out of the school and put her in a C school because I couldn’t take it anymore. I reported her to Jefferson Parish for being racist and calling my daughter the black girl and nothing was done about it. Her boss is her friend and all the teachers at Ruppel is under the principal spell and you can tell they’re afraid of her. It’s so sad I had to remove my daughter from a school she worked so hard to get into. Me and my daughter was discriminated against at this school and it’s a hurting feeling that in this day and age racism is still going on and still black people have to go through this and that an adult will treat a child and her mother bad because the color of their skin. Jefferson Parish have to do better I have reached out to the superintendent and multiple other people and no reply to my email. Do better Jefferson Parish 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.
