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.

Here is one happy, satisfied parent proud of having made the best decision to choose Zeta as my children’s academic institution! Both my children have grown so much for the past three years with Zeta, both academically and socially.

I am extremely happy with how Zeta has handled this remote learning so well. They have helped my children to embrace this remote learning in an incredibly awestruck way, providing them with all the necessary tools and keeping them motivated and encouraged on every day basis.

Both the teaching and the non-teaching staff are a group of wonderful people. They are very dedicated and have an incredible communication plan. If anything goes wrong, they act immediately and resolve the situation. They go above and beyond to see to that their students attain the best all-around education. It is so heartwarming to see how dedicated they are to the welfare of their students.

Their after-school clubs are awesome, they provide private lessons and their coaches are top notch. I would highly recommend Zeta Inwood to all parents who are looking for an institution that integrates social, emotional and academic development in an exceptionally well-rounded approach for their children.

I am so thankful to have a found a school where I can confidently send both of my children. The incredible attention and care the teachers and staff give each student is exceptional. We loved the school before Covid, but now I have never been more grateful to be in a school with such forethought, care, and teamwork to get us all through until we can be in school again. Thank you Zeta. Close Quote

We are a founding family, our experience with Zeta Charter Schools have been amazing, our son has an IEP and takes speech therapy. He has been going to Zeta since 1st grade we have watch our son blossom with the level of academics and social emotional approach to learning the school has developed. They care not only about our kids but also about the family as a whole. I love their approach to mind body and soul, my son loves taking taekwando, and he is currently in their violin club. As parents we want what is best for our children, when I learned about Zeta, I jumped at the opportunity to have my child be a part of a community that cares about educating children for the future. We are proud to be part of Zeta and all the amazing work their teachers and leaders do for our family. 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.
