279Online Learning Program 9-12

Summary:

279Online Learning Program 9-12 is a public virtual high school serving grades 9-12 in the Osseo Public School District in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, with a total enrollment of 195 students as of the 2022-2023 school year.

While the school has a diverse student population, with higher percentages of Asian and African American students compared to nearby schools, it consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Minnesota high schools and significantly underperforms the district and state averages on standardized tests across all subject areas and grade levels. The school's four-year graduation rate of 73.8% is relatively low, and its dropout rate of 2.3% is concerning, especially when compared to schools like Park Center IB World School and Osseo Senior High. Additionally, 49.23% of the students at 279Online Learning Program 9-12 qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Despite the school's low student-teacher ratio of 8.7, the overall academic performance and student outcomes at 279Online Learning Program 9-12 suggest that the school may face unique challenges in supporting and meeting the needs of its diverse and vulnerable student population. The virtual nature of the school and its consistently low performance across all subject areas and grade levels indicate that targeted interventions and additional support may be necessary to improve student success and outcomes.

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.

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.
