Three Rivers Home Link

Summary:

Three Rivers Home Link is an alternative public school in Richland, Washington, serving 660 students in grades K-12 and part of the Richland School District, which is ranked 67 out of 247 districts in the state.

Three Rivers Home Link stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outperforming the Richland School District and the state of Washington in proficiency across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 92% of 10th-grade students were proficient or better in SBAC/English Language Arts, compared to 73.5% in the Richland School District and 66.2% statewide. However, the school has seen fluctuations in its graduation rate, ranging from 10% in 2017-2018 to 71.4% in 2018-2019 and 50% in 2022-2023, which is lower than the state average. The school has also made progress in reducing its dropout rate, which has steadily declined from 10% in 2017-2018 to 5% in 2022-2023, lower than the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Mid-Columbia Parent Partnership and Pacific Crest Online Academy, Three Rivers Home Link stands out for its stronger academic performance, particularly in SBAC/English Language Arts and WCAS/Science. However, these nearby schools have higher graduation rates and lower dropout rates, which could be areas for Three Rivers Home Link to focus on improving. Additionally, the school has a predominantly White student population, with a growing percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a potential increase in the number of economically disadvantaged 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.
