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 had 2 children complete all 6 years of Sabin elementary ( including Kindergarten) I love this school...the teachers are the best!! Close Quote

Open Quote Three of our children attend Sabin this year - this is our fourth year at the school. Our favorite thing about Sabin is the teachers! Every teacher each of our children has had has been wonderful. They are caring and creative to help each student learn in his or her own way at his or her level. They go beyond just what has to be done for their students. Close Quote

Open Quote I feel beyond fortunate that our children have been Sabin Stallions since Kindergarten. While we only live blocks away, I would gladly add a hour+ commute if we ever had to move. The staff and teachers are beyond committed to EVERY kiddos safety and academic success. The 1:1 technology provides all kids the ability to grown and adapt to our ever changing technology driven world. The International Baccalaureate profile (Inquirers, Knowledgeable, Thinkers, Communicators,Principled, Open-minded, Caring, Risk-takers, Balanced,Reflective) is at the CORE of all the lesson planning and is evident in the responsible community members this school is molding for the future! I would highly recommend Sabin to anyone looking for a high quality elementary school. 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.
