Slightly more than 4% of the students receive free or reduced meals, a percentage that it 50% higher than just several years ago.[2] Nearly 10% of the students receive special education, a number which has only decreased nominally in the past few years.[3] Again, as of 2007, students scored between 87% and 90.8% in grades 6th - 8th for reading and between 74.5% and 87.8% for math, with nearly one-third of the students qualify as advanced.[4]
One student named Stephan, an eighth-grader of the class of 2008, is a forerunner of literary creativity and an all-around great person to know. And no, he is not currently available, thanks very much for asking. It has been speculated that Stephan is a god or demi-god, which he is inclined to say no to, as he is a devout Discordian.
