While the data does not provide the free/reduced lunch rate, the relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.8 to 1 and the high academic performance may suggest the school serves a more affluent student population. The school's 10.8% chronic absenteeism rate, while lower than state averages, still represents a sizable portion of the student body, and addressing attendance issues could be an area for the school to focus on to further improve outcomes.
