Summary

The school also has relatively high dropout rates, ranging from 0.9% to 1.3% in recent years, compared to the district's 0.9% dropout rate. Additionally, Carver Alter Learning Center has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 81.25% to 88.46% in recent years, indicating a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite the school's significantly higher per-student spending, ranging from $18,179 to $36,454 in recent years, compared to $8,721 to $10,265 for the district's other high schools, such as Lake View High School and Central High School, Carver Alter Learning Center continues to underperform academically. This suggests that the school is facing significant challenges in providing effective instruction and support for its students, and addressing these challenges will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach.
