Brewbaker Middle School faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 10% of Alabama middle schools. The school's performance on state assessments is significantly below the Montgomery County and Alabama state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 3.75% of 6th-grade students, 1.75% of 7th-grade students, and 3.05% of 8th-grade students at Brewbaker Middle School were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 13.92%, 8.98%, and 9.81% for Montgomery County, and 31.56%, 23.6%, and 22.06% for the state of Alabama. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and students with disabilities.

Brewbaker Middle School's academic performance is significantly lower than that of nearby schools, such as Baldwin Art and Academics Magnet and Floyd Middle School, which rank among the top 40-66 middle schools in the state. These higher-performing schools have a more diverse student population and lower percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Addressing the challenges faced by Brewbaker Middle School, such as reviewing curriculum, implementing evidence-based strategies, and engaging with the community, could help improve student outcomes and provide a high-quality education for all its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
