|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024-25 | $123,260 | $60,007 | $62,954 | $120,313 |
PTA income primarily reflects parent wealth, not school quality. Some schools have very active PTAs while others raise very little.
Discipline (Suspensions)
| Year | Removals | Principal Susp. | Supt. Susp. | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024-25 | 12 | Redacted | Redacted | 14 |
| 2023-24 | 43 | Redacted | Redacted | 44 |
| 2022-23 | 28 | Redacted | Redacted | 30 |
"Redacted" indicates small counts (1-5) suppressed for privacy. Suspension data reflects systemic patterns as much as individual school decisions. Always consider ENI context.
