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.

Open Quote Graduated in 2021. This school is pretty decent, most of the students are nice and the school encourages nice behavior, by whenever a student is kind, respectful, responsible, or safe, they will get a ticket. Every week one ticket will get picked and that student will get a prize. The teachers do their job. Some of them have higher expectations than others, but they do their job well and make sure the students are doing good. The teachers usually won't give too little or too much homework. Based on my experience, the principal and guidance counselor is very nice and supportive. I was bullied by some of the students at that school in 3rd grade and the teacher didn't really do anything about it but other than that I'd totally recommend this school. The students will either go to Barkalow or Eisenhower for middle school (yes, they split) I appreciate this school for the memories, and my friends. Close Quote

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.
