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 Do not walk, but RUN from this school.

We moved into the area this past year and had three children at LFK. We removed them to homeschool for the last three months because this school is so bad.

Our children reported that they and other students were yelled at, publicly shamed, and intimidated by teachers. They were also made to run laps for late homework. The instructional quality was poor, with limited options for extracurricular activities, and the environment inside the building was drab and depressing.

We visited the classrooms on more than one occasion only to witness firsthand that, indeed, the children were yelled at and shamed in front of their peers. Speaking with the principal had little effect, although she listened sympathetically.

Our one child's kindergarten teacher seemed nice; however the magnitude of poor behavior from our other children's teachers, in addition to the overall poor instructional quality, eclipsed that completely.

Do not subject your child to this school if you can avoid it. 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.
