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 Practically no technology applied to learning environment although that is improving. IT department (one man whom we affectionately call Fred) is being far surpassed by many jr. high students and is agreeably the least liked human in the school district. Bond measure fixing most problems did not pass. Spanish is the only foreign language and the teacher is an English major. Mold galore! Lack of proper heating system. Bells frequently incorrect. Confusing bell schedule. Great drama program with virtually no funding. Great jazz band and symphonic band. Many drug abuse issues being caught and many more slipping by unnoticed. I have learned more from google in the last six years than from any class in school. The government/history instructor and the vice principal are more concerned with sports than academics. There is no proper school counselor, although the principal fills the seat and excels at neither of his positions. As a senior I feel robbed of an education and hope that what knowledge and life experiences I have outsourced due to sheer will and determination will serve me well enough to escape this town.

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.
