The school also maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.3. The varying free and reduced lunch rates across the schools, ranging from 16.28% at the Raymond School District Preschool Program to 26.84% at Iber Holmes Gove Middle School, suggest potential socioeconomic disparities within the district that may be impacting academic performance and resource allocation.
