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.

This is an excellent school for the right child. My son has been very happy at the school, but he's also an enthusiastic learner on his own. I find he biggest draw back is Focus Week. This should be an opportunity for all grades to travel outside the country. There should be a trip to Spain every year for the students, especially since they begin Spanish in 7th grade, and it's a core focus. Parents should understand that the school is not STEM focused (and should not become STEM focused). It provides excellent critical thinking skills. Close Quote

It is concerning how many students leave ICS and go to their regular highs school.

There are WAAAAy too many parents trying to force the school to become a stem focused school as they think it is the only way their superstar will get into Stanford. It's sad how many students feel the pressure to live up to their parents' unrealists expectations. ICS is NOT a STEM school! It is a liberal arts focused school.

The homework load is unrelenting. It wouldn't be so laborious if the homework was actually engaging, but my classmates and I find the homework to be timewasting busy work. There are a ton of outside of school projects and many classmates are surprisingly immature and either cancel at the last minute or don't show up to agreed upon group project meetings on weekends. One or two people usually end up doing 90 of the group project work. When responsible students bring it to teachers' attention, the teachers shrug it off, "talk" to the offenders but give the non-contributing members the same grade as those students who actually did the work!

Please don't celebrate that your children "won the lottery" and got into ICS. There is so much wrong with the school and how it negativity impacts the only childrehood/teen years your child with get in her/his life. Let your kid be a kid. Say NO to ICS! 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.
