What Parents Should Know

At 30 students, B W Robinson School is on the smaller side. That usually buys more individual attention and teachers who know every kid by name, with the trade-off of fewer electives and extracurriculars than a larger school can staff. Ask what activities it actually offers.

At 5:1 students to teachers, B W Robinson School sits well below the national average. Smaller classes like that usually mean more one-on-one time between students and teachers.

50% of students at B W Robinson School were chronically absent in the 2022-23 school year, above the national average.
