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 I would not recommend this school with the 1 teacher my son has had the most contact with. Which is why he will not be going here next year. She has taken a student who loved learning and now hates school.

My sons current teacher gives him HW we make sure it gets done and she can not be bothered to collect it out of the folder.

He has a new teacher who constantly yells and finds this a effective teaching method. She talks about all the things she will do to help, but never follows through. She never has any positive feedback... More
Report

I have tried to mention that I think my son is bored as he know a lot of the stuff they are teaching, but it falls on deaf ears. He is expected to be at the same level as everyone else. I literally have to make his HW a challenge with a timer to get him to feel like it worth him doing.

I am not the only parent who finds challenges with this teacher. When I talk to other parents they have the same issues. Close Quote

Open Quote Definitely one of the worst elementary schools thus far! They're all about money. They have multiple fund raisers a month and send your child home with the flyer THE DAY BEFORE. Their staff is disrespectful and unknowledgeable and when trying to get something resolved you either get hung up on or told Oh well. If that's not bad enough, the teachers are worse than front desk staff! Their uncoordinated and can't control their students. On field day the students were running all around calling other students names and hitting one another and the teachers did nothing about it. 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.
