Mann Middle

Summary:

Mann Middle is a public middle school located in San Diego, California, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 715 students. It is part of the San Diego Unified School District, which is ranked 604 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mann Middle consistently ranks in the bottom half of California middle schools, with a ranking between 1,347 and 2,362 out of around 2,700-2,800 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on Smarter Balanced Assessments is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 22.17% of Mann Middle students proficient or better in ELA End-of-Course, compared to 54.22% for the San Diego Unified district and 47.04% for California. Mann Middle also has a very high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 93.71% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, much higher than the district and state averages.

Nearby schools within the San Diego Unified District, such as Roosevelt International Middle and Knox Middle, generally perform better than Mann Middle on academic measures, but also have higher percentages of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. The Magnolia Science Academy San Diego and the La Mesa Arts Academy significantly outperform Mann Middle and the other nearby schools on academic measures, despite having lower percentages of low-income students. Addressing the root causes of Mann Middle's challenges, such as chronic absenteeism and the socioeconomic status of the students, will be critical in driving meaningful improvements in the school's performance.

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.
