Despite the school's relatively high spending per student, at $23,719 in 2018-2019, the data suggests that South Page Senior High School is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The declining academic performance, low school rankings, and high percentage of economically disadvantaged students indicate that the school has substantial room for improvement. Identifying and addressing the root causes of these challenges, such as resource allocation, instructional practices, and student support services, could be crucial in improving outcomes for the students at South Page Senior High School.

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.
