The school's student-to-teacher ratio of 21.7 is also higher than the state average, which may contribute to the lower academic outcomes.

The data suggests that Futures High would benefit from targeted interventions and support to address the academic and socioeconomic challenges faced by its students. Strategies to improve graduation rates, reduce dropout rates, and increase academic proficiency should be a priority for the school and district. The performance of Futures High should also be considered within the broader context of the Futures High District, as the district's overall ranking and rating may be influencing the school's outcomes.
