Sheeler High Charter

Summary:

Sheeler High Charter is a public charter high school located in Apopka, Florida, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 314. Despite being part of the Orange County School District, which is ranked 31 out of 68 districts in Florida, Sheeler High Charter has consistently struggled, ranking in the bottom 20% of Florida high schools over the past 10 years with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Sheeler High Charter's academic performance is significantly lower than the district and state averages across all subjects and grade levels, with abysmal 4-year graduation rates ranging from 8.2% to 20.7% over the past 5 years. This is drastically lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school has had alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 72.3% to 90.1% over the past 5 years. Interestingly, Sheeler High Charter serves a more affluent population, with an extremely low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 0.96% to 1.03% over the past 3 years, which is significantly lower than the district and state averages.

In contrast, nearby schools in the Orange County district, such as Acceleration West, Legacy High Charter, and Ocoee High, have significantly higher academic proficiency rates, graduation rates, and lower chronic absenteeism compared to Sheeler High Charter. This stark contrast raises concerns about the school's resource allocation and its ability to effectively support student learning and success.

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.
