As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

I have had a very good experience with Einstein. My daughter has done very well. They offer a wide variety of courses, so there is something for everyone. The theatre program is AWESOME! It's a diverse school both racially and economically, but I think that's a good thing. Close Quote

I am currently enrolled at Albert Einstein as a freshman. When I first entered as a freshman I worried about loads of work and bullying. But that was just me worrying about nothing. The workloads were distributed equally and fairly. The teachers are helpful and advise lunch help or after school help if needed. Like every school there are a couple of teachers that are not all that great. The academics are everything that a student might ever need, they also expound upon any academy you are interested in. There is a lot of different cults and religions at Albert Einstein so it is a very mixed school. People are generally carefree about their styles and do not need to worry about bullying. The principle, Mr. Fernandez, banned strapless clothing and really low pants but generally lets kids were what they know is appropriate and he literally drills into kids heads, “No bullying, report if someone’s being bullied “and etc. The counselors push you to go the extra mile and to take IB or AP classes, the counselors are also available after school, before school, and during lunch .The sports are great for anyone who wants to join.

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.
