The consistent underperformance of KIPP Blytheville Collegiate High School compared to the state and nearby schools, along with its high percentage of economically disadvantaged students and higher spending per student, suggest that the school may be facing resource allocation challenges or that the funds are not being effectively utilized to improve student outcomes. The fluctuating student-teacher ratio, ranging from 7.2 in 2021-2022 to 12.3 in 2022-2023, may also be a reflection of staffing challenges or changes in enrollment, which could impact the quality of instruction and support provided to students.

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.
