Horrible school , my child had a restroom emergency and was told to hold it.. Had a math teacher for advanced TAG math that was let go due to poor teaching . Spanish teacher fired for making kids write a paper on slavery ( they are kids)) .The car rider line is joke . Another example of liberal democrats killing public schools . Every week I hear of problems in this school . Just a few months left and we are done. My youngest will be going to private school. Close Quote

Poor respect for the staff. Students bullied and no one takes care of it when reported or even noticed. Everything is absolutely sickening. 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.
