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.

I would not recommend this school if your child has a learning disability. My son has an IEP and in second grade . The teacher has no patience for him when he gets disrupted I'm gone numerous times to try to put in place ways to help him but they would rather send him home then to try to help him so now he's learned that if he's distracted he gets to go home. When he does wants to stay in the room and learn he's constantly told he cannot participate because he's an IEP and he has to leave to go learn in a separate class .the school has no patience for a child with learning disabilities my child is only eight and in second grade and is not perfect but I don't get to send him home every time he upsets me . I understand the policies when a kid is being disruptive not when it is a non-violent actions he is just upset they don't take him into the office and try to work with him. He gets very upset for being sent home and disappointed. he's already behind I try to get the school to put him in summer school but nobody ever got back to me if your child has any kind of learning problems try a different school.

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.
