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 school is fantastic, everybody has been so helpful and friendly their entire staff has been a huge support system for our family. Mrs. Westwood the principal, is a great driving force! Close Quote

Open Quote The staff from the Principal down work hard to make a difference. My children enjoy going to school. Thank you Wolff! Close Quote

Open Quote The new principal for the 2016-2017 year is treating this school like it's like a Title 1 school which she comes from and we're constantly being compared to. There's no one size fits all so she needs to consider all the children that go to that school. So, ask yourself, is she thinking about our kid(s) or her own agenda? Close Quote

Open Quote This school appears great on the surface. The kindergarten classes have a 30:1 ratio which is unacceptable. They also have no time to help children with any sort of difficulties. They would rather just get rid of the "problem" so they don't have to worry about it. At a 30:1 ratio I don't blame them, however that is a violation of FAPE under section 504. There should be no reason to suspend or expel a kindergartener, they are not even old enough to fully grasp the concept. 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.
