Hyde Academy

Summary:

Hyde Academy is a public high school in Swanquarter, North Carolina, serving grades 9-12 and part of the Hyde County Schools district. The school has seen a shift in its racial demographics, with a decrease in White students and an increase in African American and Hispanic students compared to the state. While Hyde Academy has performed better than the state average on some state assessments, it has also struggled in other areas, particularly for specific student subgroups like female and White students.

The school has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges in the community. Despite spending significantly more per student than the state average, Hyde Academy has faced academic performance issues, suggesting the need for a comprehensive review of the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to address the unique needs of its diverse student population.

The analysis of Hyde Academy reveals a complex picture, with both strengths and areas for improvement. The school's shifting demographics, mixed academic performance, high poverty levels, and resource allocation considerations suggest the need for a data-driven approach to address the challenges faced by the school and its community.

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.
