Also, the district has no outstanding debt and enough cash reserve to operate for three years. Despite the lack of financial spending, and with a high percentage of economically-disadvantaged students (75.9 percent compared to 60.4 statewide), students scored higher than average on the SAT (1459 vs. the statewide average of 1422, with Hispanic students average even better at 1463).
