My daughter has been a student at Jenifer Elementary since first grade. This is her last year at Jenifer and we will both truly miss the school. We have had a wonderful experience at Jenifer. The teachers are nice and keep the lines of communication open. Her teachers acknowledge her potential and have kept her in advanced reading and math classes throughout her years at the school. They keep her challenged.She feels that she and the rest of her friends are a family. I've received no problems from this school and once again I will truly miss it. Close Quote

I have had children at Jenifer for four years and have been happy with the school. The teachers and staff go out of their way to help the students. There is a reading recovery program, special before school programs to help prepare students who are having a little difficulty for the MSA tests, gifted student programs, and others. I have found the staff at Jenifer to be very caring and conscientious. I would recommend this school to anyone. 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.
