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.

Tuesday, March 15, 2016

We whole-heartedly supported this school when our child attended (kindergarten through fifth grade), but more importantly, we support the constitutional right of due process. The administration at this school and at the district level denied a parent access to school grounds based on nothing but rumor and community gossip, which continues to spiral out of control because a few parents with children who still attend insist on propagating outright lies to further their own "cause."
In this day and age, it is up for debate whether or not the school board can deny access to a parent. Understandably the district needs to protect all children and that is paramount here, but it seems they should not deny access to one involved party unless they are also restricting access to the other. There are two sides to every situation, not one. In the interest and protection of my child, if it is deemed dangerous enough that one party is removed, I would expect that all parties are removed to avoid an unintentional abuse of discretion, and that was absolutely not the case.
School bans or restrictions should be based on circumstances that support reasonable decision making, applied in a fair manner. Favoritism is now certainly the norm at Arbor View Elementary, and I am glad my child no longer attends. 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.
