In contrast, the Renaissance Virtual School and Renaissance Alternative High School struggle with significantly lower graduation rates, higher dropout rates, and much lower test scores compared to the other schools in the district. This suggests these schools may face unique challenges in serving their student populations. The data also highlights the potential impact of socioeconomic factors, as schools with higher percentages of free and reduced-price lunch recipients tend to have lower academic performance and higher chronic absenteeism.
