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 The whole school has one strategy for teaching everyone. One solution available for everyone. The online learning format is a mess. No table of contents, no subject index, no way if finding anything. The assignments don't have titles once you print them, so it's hard to figure out where they belong. Don't ask for any help about online courses. They have nothing to offer. The way each screen is set up, when you go to the bottom of the screen, you can't see the top. When you go to page 2, or, 3 or whatever, you won't remember the learning objectives. If there are similar terns that you want to compete, well good luck finding them. There is no way of connecting the information you have unless you are willing to write down 500 pages. There is no way of doing print screen because the school doesn't want you to do that, and if you go ahead and do that anyway, the information is cut off either on the top, the bottom, or the sides. The feedback from the teachers about the work...one sentence probably computer generated. The quizzes are are not representative of the exams for each module. The questions are so different that it is almost like a different class.

Don't go there. Their ratings are 389 of 411 from the bottom up.
One good thing, the people who answer the phone are good listeners and patient. But they won't help you. They just send you on your way to talk to someone who can do even less to help you.

I regret having used this school for online learning. They used put downs and guilty trips over the phone and I'm an adult. I wonder what they do to kids. They know what happens when they ask for help, so they just give up completely. If you say anything about the learning environment, they have NEVER HEARD ANY COMPLAINTS. Really? That's why they are ranked at the bottom. If you want a bad school, this is the one!!!!

If I could give it minus 10 stars, I would. 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.
