St. Vrain Virtual High School

Summary:

St. Vrain Virtual High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Longmont, Colorado, with a relatively small student population of 75. The school is part of the St. Vrain Valley School District, which is ranked 30th out of 115 districts in Colorado and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of the key factors that sets St. Vrain Virtual High School apart is its exceptional academic performance. The school outperforms the district and state averages in several key test score metrics, including 83% of 11th-grade students being proficient or better in SAT Reading and Writing, compared to 68% for the district and 59% for the state. Additionally, the school has a very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 2.8 to 4.5 over the past three years, significantly lower than the surrounding schools, which range from 15.7 to 23.9 students per teacher. This suggests the school is providing a highly personalized learning environment for its students.

Another notable aspect of St. Vrain Virtual High School is its racial makeup, which differs from the surrounding schools. The school has a significantly higher percentage of White students (73.33%) compared to the district average, but also a higher percentage of Hispanic students (21.33%). This could indicate the virtual school model is attracting a more diverse student population than the traditional brick-and-mortar schools in the area. However, the school does not provide free/reduced lunch data, which is unusual compared to the surrounding schools, raising questions about the school's socioeconomic diversity and whether it is serving a representative population of the community.

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.
