Vineland Middle School

Summary:

Vineland Middle School is a public middle school in Pueblo, Colorado, serving 313 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Pueblo County School District 70, which is ranked 57 out of 116 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

Vineland Middle School faces several challenges. It has a diverse student population with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (43.45%) compared to the state average, and a lower percentage of White students (49.52%). The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Colorado middle schools, with a 2-star rating for the 2023-2024 school year, lower than the state average of 3 stars. Vineland's performance on CMAS assessments is lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, and its rankings for female, male, and White student subgroups are also in the bottom half of Colorado middle schools. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (63.26%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which is a proxy for low socioeconomic status and may contribute to the school's lower academic performance.

Compared to nearby schools, Vineland Middle School's performance on CMAS assessments is generally lower than Liberty Point International School and Pleasant View Middle School in the Pueblo County School District 70, but it outperforms the schools in the Pueblo School District No. 60, such as Pueblo Academy of Arts and Risley International Academy of Innovation. The school's consistently low ranking and rating over the years suggest a lack of significant improvement in student outcomes, indicating a need for targeted interventions and support to help Vineland Middle School better serve its diverse student population.

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.
