iGrad Virtual Academy School

Summary:

iGrad Virtual Academy School is a public virtual high school located in Canton, Georgia, serving grades 9-12 with an enrollment of 241 students. The school is part of the Cherokee County School District, which is ranked 28th out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While iGrad Virtual Academy School has a higher four-year graduation rate of 93.7% compared to the state average, it lags behind the nearby traditional public high schools like Creekview High School, Woodstock High School, and River Ridge High School on key metrics like test scores. For example, in 2023-2024, iGrad's proficiency rates were 44.4% in American Literature, 22.2% in Algebra I, 35% in Biology, and 26.7% in US History, compared to higher scores at the nearby schools. Additionally, the school's free/reduced lunch rate of 16.6% is lower than the nearby traditional public high schools, suggesting a relatively more affluent student population.

One potential advantage of iGrad Virtual Academy School is its lower student-teacher ratio of 12.1, which could allow for more individualized attention and support for students. However, this does not seem to be translating into significantly better academic outcomes compared to the nearby traditional public high schools. The lower test scores and graduation rates at iGrad Virtual Academy School may indicate that the virtual learning environment poses challenges for some students, such as lack of in-person support, distractions, or difficulty with self-discipline.

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.
