The verdict

Cherry School runs at 544% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical K-12 Education workplace, earning a grade F.

Cherry School: 7.6 TCR = 544% of K-12 Education BLS 1.4 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Cherry School safety composite

Cherry School scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 18%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).

Cherry School has more employees than the K-12 Education median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.8. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
