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.

If I could give the school zero stars I would. Considering I was a student here, I have a more clear point of view. This school is out of control. They claim to have a zero tolerance policy, however, that is most certainly not the case. Bullying is so bad here another student I knew and her family had to move away in order for her to feel comfortable going to school again. I myself was bullied to the point of feeling miserable and uncomfortable to even go to school. Certain people that were suppose to be in place to make me feel comfortable and understood contributed to the unnerving feelings I had here. My parents seriously considered homeschooling me. I was so distracted by how uncomfortable I felt, it was hard to pay attention in class at times. My favorite part of the day quickly became the bus ride. There are a handful of teachers this school, however, that went out of their way to make sure I was okay that day. That is the only positive thing I can say about the school quite honestly. If you're considering having your children go to school here, don't. 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.
