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.

YOUR CHILD DESERVES BETTER!!!!!! This is not a school that I would recommend going to. The majority of the teachers have taught me almost nothing in the 3 years I have been going here, they are extremely disorganized and spend more time making fun slideshows than teaching the kids. As far as the political demographic of the school it is very liberal, which is understandable due to the fact that the area is mainly democratic yet it has the feeling that anyone with opposing views is an outcast and the school does nothing to prevent this. The only reason I give it 2 stars is that there are a few teachers that are amazing and taught me quite a bit. Overall I would not recommend going to this school. Close Quote

This school does not have consistent discipline guidelines used across all students. Where policies are in place, the school does not follow these for example, having a student call home to sending a notice home when a student receives a detention. 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.
