This is a ranking of SAT averages by school of students on free or reduced lunch plans. Also added for comparison is each school's overall SAT average of the entire school population. Children from low income families tend to have lower SAT scores no matter how well regarded the school is.
The highest SAT score is 2400. Some Dallas area school districts have too few or no "free lunch" students, so there is no listing for those schools (Highland Park ISD, Lovejoy ISD, Celina ISD, Westlake charter, Melissa ISD)
