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.

Great school! Great teachers! Close Quote

Saturday, June 5, 2010

Extremely disappointed with this school. Administration is so hands off with the teachers (in k-2nd) that the teachers I have experience with are either lazy with their dealings with the children-offerering little to no playground (and classroom) supervision-with lots! of mishaps and injuries-no notes home to explain accidents and injuries!!! Instead of gains made at home with spelling and math I am seeing a steady decline in abilities due to major classroom distractions. Little discipline is offered in the classroom-kids run it. I'm sure the scores will tell the rest of the story. So sorry I did not pull my child out in kindergarten. I was expecting great things with the new principal, but have found him to be quite wishy washy and too soft in his dealing with serious issues. Close Quote

Serious issues with Busing and TAG program. Beginning in 3rd grade TAG Students are separated and given more challenging work environment with little to no diversity. Average classes have large percentage of disadvantaged children and special education children and no interaction with their above average peers. Very disappointed with this school personally. PTA is active. Teachers are good. New Leadership may help 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.
