Panther Creek also has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 17.93%, and a very low student-teacher ratio of 9:1, which is significantly lower than the nearby schools, such as Reedy High School (12.7:1) and Prosper High School (18.5:1).

Compared to nearby schools, Panther Creek High School's performance is mixed, with lower proficiency in Algebra I but stronger performance in other subjects. The school's diverse student population and low free/reduced lunch rate also set it apart from some of the other schools in the area. The low student-teacher ratio may be a contributing factor to its relatively strong performance in certain subject areas, but the lower proficiency rates in Algebra I suggest opportunities for improvement in math instruction or support. Overall, Panther Creek High School appears to be a strong performer within the Frisco Independent School District, with some areas of strength and opportunities for improvement.

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.
