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 the worst school ever. Don't enroll your child here. The teachers are rude and don't teach anything in their classes. Fights happen a lot at this school and there are a lot of people that judge other people. Close Quote

Open Quote My girls used to love school. Now? They are at the point where they dread school so much they vomit and plead to stay home. It isn't only the students there, but the faculty as well. Most don't want to help the children comprehend what they are learning and if they ask for additional help they are only given what was stated before. No trying to make it work for someone who has learning disabilities. Not to mention that two of my children have Asperger Syndrome and the faculty seem to think that girls cannot have this, it is mostly males. Well so far, me and my two youngest are proof that AS is more common in females than this school likes to think. It took me two years to even get a 504 plan in place for one child, because the faculty seemed to think that the Developmental Pediatrician diagnosis was only a "Recommendation". Yeah, now I know why my kids hate this school, and I don't blame them one bit. 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.
