The teachers here are absolutely horrid. They constantly are being disrespectful and expect respect in return. I will point out I have had great experiences with Ms. Barnum, Ms. Short, Mr. Hanna and Mr. Manning. I was never disrespected by them, and I was always engaged in their classes. There are often bugs in class rooms and roaches are found in the bathrooms as well. I also speak for all the students when I say they need to fix the bathroom policy. Many classes have a rule of 3 bathroom breaks per semester. All the students despise this, as we often need to use the restroom. No, not to vape, but to use the restroom. I especially think girls and trans guys should be allowed way more than three breaks, due to our time of the month. I very much hope this will be seen by the 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.
