Additionally, the school spends more per student ($18,830 in 2020-2021) compared to the state average, but this has not translated into better academic outcomes. The school's performance for certain student subgroups, such as White students and students with low socioeconomic status, is particularly concerning, as these subgroups perform significantly worse than the state averages for those subgroups.
