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 I can not stand this school, I have two children that go here. The staff seems polite but doesn't do anything to stop students from bullying and hurting others. My daughter has been stabbed in the leg, punched in the face, has been stole from and much more. My son is a special needs student and has had similar issues, they can not seem to discipline/control the problem kids..and theres so many of them its ridiculous. Ive been up to the school so much bc of their lack of handling issues. I've tried to change schools bc of the problems but was denied due to my address. I absolutely would NOT recommend this school unless you want your child being in a horrible, ghetto, unsafe school. It's is coming to the point that I am willing to home school my children bc the people that are paid aren't capable of doing their jobs properly. 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.
