Across schools that reported staffing, the median student–teacher ratio is 17.4:1, similar to the statewide school median of 17.6:1. A ratio counts classroom-teacher FTE against total enrollment, so specialized programs and part-time staffing can move it; ask schools for actual class sizes by grade.
