The school's high percentage of students from low-income families, as indicated by the free and reduced-price lunch rate of 49.18%, may contribute to the academic performance challenges. Additionally, the school has a relatively high per-student spending of $19,028 and a low student-teacher ratio of 14.4 to 1, suggesting that the resources may not be effectively utilized or targeted to address the specific needs of the student population. Further analysis may be needed to understand how the school's resources can be better leveraged to improve student outcomes.
