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.

Thursday, May 20, 2021

I have only started to realized how insidious and malignant the school is since the pandemic. It was until then did I have a chance to SEE what my children were being taught during remote learning. It was absolutely filled with Critical Race Theory and anti-conservative propaganda, teachers and principal were aggressively indoctrinating their own political agenda. They also teach anti-history. I could recount 4 sessions with the teachers, principal, and vice superintendent, asking and pleading with them to stay politically neutral. They of course completely IGNORED me. And due to pandemic, I have no way of knowing any of the parents, so that kept me isolated from reaching out to other parents. It is terrifying these "educators" think they have to right to indoctrinate and brainwash my children. They expect me to just go away out of frustration. But I will not shut up, our taxpayers hard-earned money pay for your salaries! You have to crawl through my dead body before you could shut me up. 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.
