Sneads High School

Summary:

Sneads High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Sneads, Florida, with a student population of 360. The school is part of the Jackson School District, which is ranked 40 out of 68 districts in Florida and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Sneads High School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (69.17%) compared to surrounding schools, it faces several challenges. The school has seen a decline in its four-year graduation rates, dropping from 91.6% in 2020-2021 to 75.5% in 2022-2023. Additionally, Sneads High School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.3% to 56.0% over the past five years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. The school's test scores are also generally lower than the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels, with proficiency rates in Algebra 1 (17%), English Language Arts for 9th and 10th grade (47% and 52%, respectively), and Geometry (52%) all falling below the state and district averages.

When comparing Sneads High School to nearby schools, some interesting observations emerge. Marianna High School, which is in the same district, has higher graduation rates, lower chronic absenteeism, and generally better test scores than Sneads High School. Additionally, Liberty County High School, which is in a different district, has a higher percentage of white students, lower free/reduced lunch rates, and better test scores than Sneads High School. Despite the increased per-student spending at Sneads High School, from $7,406 in 2019-2020 to $10,991 in 2022-2023, these improvements have not translated into better academic outcomes for the students.

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.
