Furthermore, 100% of the school's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.

The school's declining performance, as evidenced by its drop in rankings and star ratings from SchoolDigger over the past three years, is a cause for concern. Addressing the low test scores, high poverty levels, and racial imbalance will likely require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach involving additional resources, targeted interventions, and a focus on equity and inclusion to improve the educational outcomes for the students in this community.
