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.

Open Quote This school is racist,oppressive,and ridiculous to go to.If you are stabbed and fight back you get in trouble.There are only a couple decent teachers,the rest think yelling at you for no reason and trying to arrest you will make you a better scholar.Actually that's their excuse because they think it's funny like 5 year olds would.Their athletics suck because you're not allowed to do anything in school.It's hard to work out, for the football coaches won't let anybody in the weight room for no reason.I hate it here,I've learned nothing,and the neighborhoods suck to live in.It's in the middle of nowhere.Everybody that was not raised here hates it here because of the school alone.I would rather starve to death in Ethiopia and give away my education than go here.Or die by getting stabbed in the back at Rutters,which actually happened.I hate every moment in this school.Goodbye.

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.
