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 is absolutely the worst school in the area (Spotsy, Stafford, Orange, King George, and Caroline counties combined) and has been for around 20 years. Very low income families, very poor teaching staff, and very poor discipline strategies all lead to a hostile, chaotic, and dangerous learning environment and much lower standardized test scores. I work within the school system and everyone says this. I had a daughter attend this school and we had to relocate to send her to a better school. Do NOT send your kid here - if you can help it at all. Close Quote

Open Quote Any amount of theft isn't even treated at a misdemeanor, I've already had $50+ stolen from me and nothing has been done to apprehend any of the criminals.

Teachers are only teaching for money and the english department has not taught me ANYTHING all year. It's all about the night book and Tolkien. I was given massive packets of work for two chapters of a book and received no support from my teacher, leading to the grades of most of my classmates to plummet. It's also coincidentally the one class i have a C in.

Any amount of money the school receives is wasted on events that people rarely attend due to all of the stress they have to deal with from this school. NOT ONCE have I just woken up and decided "school should be fun today" but instead constantly had thoughts of suicide and figured it would be much better than attending this hellhole.

I've had thoughts of starting up a community but never was actually able to due to the amount of restrictions and limitations of this school, where they could use whatever funding they received they wasted.

I'd have more to say but I don't save not express my thoughts very well 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.
