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.

Because of Audeo Charter school 111 and the staff there, my son is going to school instead of dropping out. He is academically ahead of his peers but was bullied and depressed and gave up. For years I fought, begged and pleaded with the school district to help me and they did nothing but ignore or deny the problems. We found out about Audeo and enrolled immediately. The staff at Audeo Charter School 111 has been amazing and go above and beyond. They work with my son one to one or small groups. They support and teach him via phone and internet all through the pandemic. They work with his education based on his individual level. My only regret is not discovering them sooner. The district sure didn't volunteer the information even when repeatedly asked for other options or alternatives. It was a chance discovery. My son has been a student there for almost a year and a half. I cannot say enough or express my gratitude deeply enough. 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.
