Manchester School of Technology (High School)

Summary:

Manchester School of Technology (High School) is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Manchester, New Hampshire, with a student population of 332. The school is part of the Manchester School District, which is ranked 157 out of 163 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Manchester School of Technology (High School) consistently ranks among the lowest-performing high schools in New Hampshire, with a statewide ranking between 69 and 84 out of 71-87 high schools over the past 8 years. Its performance on state assessments (NH SAS) and the SAT is significantly below the state and district averages across all subject areas. The school has a more diverse student population compared to the surrounding schools, with higher percentages of Hispanic (26.81%) and African American (3.31%) students. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 33.42% to 41.57% over the past 3 years, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. However, the school's lower student-teacher ratio (10.4-11.8) compared to nearby high schools (13.0-15.3) may suggest smaller class sizes and potentially more individualized attention for students.

When comparing Manchester School of Technology (High School) to nearby schools like Pinkerton Academy and Londonderry Senior High School, the data suggests that Manchester School of Technology (High School) faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its diverse and economically disadvantaged student population, as evidenced by its persistent low academic performance and statewide rankings. Addressing these challenges will likely require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach that addresses both academic and non-academic factors impacting student success.

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.
