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.

Pine Richland is one of the worst schools a student can be subjected to. The staff are almost all rigid unsympathetic lunatics. They care about social status above all else. It is ingrained into the minds of the students that Football is king and nothing else matters. It is a horrible experience and should be addressed my the school. Close Quote

Unless you have alot of money to "keep up with the Jone's" in this school district, your child will be subject to constant "bullying" by students, teachers and administrators. The "Rich" parents control this school. My child went through "H***" and so did I as a parent throughout the whole high school experience. The school has had 3 suicides in the last 3 years and basically covered them up so as to not ruine their reputation. My child was on the "watch" list as a danger to himself or others and simply stopped trying. I should've taken my child out but I was listening to the "Professionals" and went along with the whole process. Extremely intelligent strait "A" kid graduated with a 1.9% GPA. Sad.. Signed: Very proud parent of a child serving his country in the U.S. Military!!!!! 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.
