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 My daughter is in kindergarten at Arrowhead. She has one teacher for 35 5 -6 year old children. Please tell me how any one adult can manage and teach 35 little 5 year old children. Additionally, the school barely acknowledges holidays, does not allow cake or cupcakes for Birthday celebrations and does very little to build school moral in children. We are disappointed thus far in the school after having our son have such great experiences at his school 1st - 8th grade.

We are fairly new to the school district but our son who attends Inglemoor HS loves it and we've had great interaction with the teachers and staff at the HS. Close Quote

Open Quote As a new family to Arrowhead, the parents and staff are welcoming and helpful. The teachers, principal and PTA have all worked with us to become familiar with the school environment, educate us as parents on what to expect this year and throughout our time at Arrowhead.

Our daughter is happily settled into class with a terrific teacher. The principal, whom we met at the new family orientation this summer visits with us after school, knows us by name and really has made an effort to help our once very concerned, very worried little girl feel happy, safe and confident in her new surroundings.

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.
