Lyle High School

Summary:

Lyle High School is a small public high school in Lyle, Washington, serving 67 students in grades 9-12. The school has a predominantly White student population, with significant Hispanic and Native American representation. However, Lyle High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Washington high schools, with a current 1-star rating and a ranking of 336 out of 437 schools.

One of the key challenges facing Lyle High School is the significant fluctuations in its graduation and dropout rates. The school's four-year graduation rate has ranged from a low of 55.5% to a high of 85.7%, while its dropout rate has varied from 9.5% to 44.4%. Academically, Lyle High School's performance lags behind the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 74.63% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Pacific Crest Innovation Academy and Columbia High School, Lyle High School's performance is significantly lower. For example, Pacific Crest Innovation Academy, a public magnet school, ranks 13th out of 455 Washington high schools and has much higher proficiency rates in Math. Addressing the unique challenges faced by Lyle High School, including the needs of its predominantly low-income student population, will be crucial for improving the school's overall performance and providing quality education for all its students.

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.
