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.

Open Quote It is terrible
the foods is fake
building is unsanitary
principle needs to prioritize better, stop worrying about certain kids and should start caring about everyone
I thought it was hysterical when I got a office detention for telling a bully to stop bullying my friends little sister and she got nothing
I also thought it was funny when a kid was doing inappropriate actions which are illegal and got nothing for it
kids disrespect other students as well as teachers and don't care
we have an on campus officer which only benefits the principle
most teachers are nice and understanding while some are not
I'm always stuck with the most obnoxious kids in class and I cant get anything done because they are constantly talking Close Quote

Open Quote Hopkins is what a school should be..a place for learning and personal growth.
The town's great support of Hopkins and the pride of the students and teachers is clearly shown in standardized tests. GO HAWKS! 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.
