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 As a former student of this school, I have nothing good to say about the teachers of the school.
1.They treated us like preschoolers but expected us to act like adults, placing an unreasonable amount of pressure on us to grow up faster.
Kids aren't perfect and the fact that you shame them for making mistakes SPEAKS VOLUMES
2.They do nothing about bullying and act like they do with those anti bullying programs.
3.The teachers are very biased and only favor the kids who are smart and shame the ones who are struggling academically.
4.They even talk smack about you right in front of your face and when you try to defend yourself they accuse you of "talking back" (the art teacher made fun of how I didn't use a ruler to draw my lines correctly)
5. some teachers have temper and anger management issues one example is how I went back into the building to get my pencil case and this teacher just screams in my face acting like I committed a crime

So don't send your kid to this school unless you want them to have a poor self esteem and question whether they're good enough
the only good thing that came out of this was the school events Close Quote

Open Quote You need to expand it and grow fresh vegetables, not frozen vegetables. I suggest that you should get a smartboard to very class and update the Chromebooks. Don't give students dirt ones, clean them before you give them. I saw many students unhappy that their Chromebooks are dirty.This is my rating on Woodbrook so far. Close Quote

Open Quote Additional space for a gymnasium and cafeteria are badly needed. Other than that the quality of education is excellent. Teachers do a great job with the facilities and equipment they have 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.
