School Demographics as outlined on the School's Website. it is NOT clear how students are selected into this International Baccalaureate (IB) Program, but it is usually through demonstrated ability. We are looking into this... School was built in 2005, so the claim by Newsweek is again bogus. Roughly, 50% of the students are white, 29% are Asian-American, two groups that are the highest performing groups in the country.

Percent of free or reduced lunch is only 25%, which disqualifies from being a 'miracle' school by our definition.
