While the school's high spending per student suggests a focus on resource allocation, the lack of information on the school's free/reduced lunch rate makes it difficult to assess the school's performance in the context of its student population's socioeconomic status. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of the school's performance and identify potential areas for improvement, additional data would be helpful, such as trends in student academic growth, comparison to similar schools, and feedback from the local community.
