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.

New school but it has been a bit of a transition. This is our third school in this area, so I am just comparing between them.

I have three kids in different grades here and it seems like things are run pretty poorly. I have seen multiple times this year teachers crying in the halls, and it feels like everyone is on the verge of breaking. Maybe it is from Covid or the brand new principle is struggling. I am not really sure, but as our group of parents say, try walking around after school and you will feel it.

Teachers are nice and at least speaking from my three seem to be comparable, it just feels like they are rushing through things at paces that make it hard to learn and experience the skills.

It has a feeling like everyone is exhausted and burnt out here. Hopefully this changes as the leadership team gains some experience. That way next year it doesn't have such a depressing vibe for a school. Close Quote

Students eligible for free or discounted lunch at Aspen Elementary

Compare

2022	501	21.9	22.8	21

Data source: National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Dept of Education.

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.
