Socioeconomic factors also play a role, as the school has a 38.31% free and reduced-price lunch rate, suggesting a significant population of students from low-income families. The district's higher-than-average per-student spending of $14,027 in 2022-2023 may be an effort to address the needs of this population and support student success.
