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 I have never had any issues with the staff or teachers but I am confused. Why is REC 299th out of 500 if every local I have met since moving to this state brags over the school? What can be done to correct this? Looking up stats for the entire stat on digger it seems REC could be doing more but they are not, what are they missing?

3 of 5 stars due to concern for child's well being at a school that is only receiving about half of what I expected. Close Quote

Open Quote Although my children are successful at this school because of the wonderful teachers they have, I am so disappointed in the most disrespectful, and blatantly rude office staff. Not just as a parent but as a school volunteer I want to avoid the office all together. They are not friendly in any way, they are not helpful, and they treat everyone poorly. The Worst office staff ever! They need to replace them. If. Could I would send them somewhere else! Those office people are suppose to be the first people we meet. Very Unhappy, but so happy with the teachers my children have, I'm willing to continue with the school and not pull kids out and homeschool praying that district gets rid of office staff.

Open Quote All three of my children have been successful at Robert E Cashion. All of which were in challenge and/or BETA. They have very helpful teachers, allowing them to always be on the honor roll. 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.
