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 is an aweful school. Please do not send your kids here. The staff is very unprofessional. The kids run the school, there's no order. DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE!! Close Quote

Open Quote My daughter currently attends Kindergarten at Preeminent and I must say that I am very pleased with the education that she has received thus far. She comes home telling me about the new things she learns every day. Her teacher is very informative and she communicates with the parents about the lesson plans 2-3 time per week. My child even made honor roll after being moved into an advanced kindergarten class. I am impressed with the parent/ family involvement with volunteering in the class room weekly. My only concern is the drop off process in the morning. Parents only have from 7:45- 8am to drop their child off at the door. After 8am there's no staff outside so you have to walk your child in because there is no one outside to direct traffic and ensure the students are safely directed into class. 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.
