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 moved to Uvalde in the middle of high school. The public school I had attended (in another stated) offered the same classes in 10th grade as were required to take in Uvalde in 11th grade. As a consequence, I was forced to simply repeat the coursework, as nothing else was offered. They told me that if I did not repeat the coursework I would not have enough credits to graduate.

I was shocked to hear teachers telling students that our education had not prepared us for college. Teachers would tell us about students who went away to college and had to come home because they were unprepared for the rigors of an acutal education.

The big deal assignment in 12th grade was to write one reaserch paper (One!) It was a process that took the entire year. We were threatened with not graduating if the one required paper was not written correctly. I could not believe that as seniors in high school one single research paper was all that was required and that our hands were held ever step of the way. This was something I had learned in the seventh grade.

I realized that it was true when the teachers said that their students were not ready for college. And I don't know how those teachers can live with themselves.

The education offered in this city is nothing short of abysmal. 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.
