Additionally, the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, with 39.04% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. These factors, along with the school's uneven academic outcomes and high chronic absenteeism rate, suggest that the school and district may need to implement targeted strategies to support student success and address the unique challenges faced by the school community.
