Mann Middle School

Summary:

Mann Middle School is a public middle school located in Brandon, Florida, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 802 students. The school is part of the Hillsborough School District, which is ranked 45th out of 68 districts in Florida and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Mann Middle School stands out for its significantly higher chronic absenteeism rate, lower test scores, and higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to nearby schools like Progress Village Middle Magnet, Turkey Creek Middle School, and Burnett Middle School. In the 2022-2023 school year, Mann Middle School's chronic absenteeism rate was 50.3%, much higher than the other nearby schools. Additionally, the school's test scores consistently lag behind the Hillsborough district and Florida state averages, with only 39%, 26%, and 31% of students proficient or better in FAST/English Language Arts for 6th, 7th, and 8th grades, respectively, compared to the district averages of 54%, 49%, and 47%.

The analysis of Mann Middle School's data also reveals a concerning trend of declining performance, with the school's statewide ranking dropping from 726 out of 1,035 Florida middle schools in the 2017-2018 school year to 1,026 out of 1,196 in the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, the school's student population has seen a shift in racial demographics, with a decrease in the percentage of White students and an increase in the percentage of Hispanic students. These factors, combined with the school's higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, suggest that Mann Middle School may be facing significant challenges in improving student achievement and overall success.

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.
