The data also reveals significant disparities in student demographics and school funding, with the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch ranging from 16.43% at Bodkin Elementary to 55.26% at High Point Elementary.

Addressing these disparities and improving the performance of the lower-performing schools could be key priorities for the district.
