Delta Junction Senior High School

Summary:

Delta Junction Senior High School is a public high school in Delta Junction, Alaska, serving 165 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Delta/Greely School District, which is ranked 3 out of 24 school districts in the state and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Delta Junction Senior High School has shown a mixed performance compared to state and district averages. While the school's science proficiency rates were higher than the state average, its English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates were lower. The school's ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 5th out of 61 schools in 2020-2021 to 39th out of 62 schools in 2022-2023.

The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of White students and a significant percentage of students from two or more races. The school's relatively low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients and higher per-student spending suggest it may have access to more resources compared to other schools in the state. Additionally, the school has experienced a decrease in its student-teacher ratio, which could indicate improved student-teacher interactions and more personalized attention for students.

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.

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.
