Village Of Excellence Middle School

Summary:

Village Of Excellence Middle School is a public charter middle school in Tampa, Florida, serving 99 students in grades 6-8. The school has a predominantly African American student population, with 89.9% of students identifying as African American in the 2022-2023 school year. The school is part of the Hillsborough School District, which is ranked 47th out of 67 districts in Florida and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Village Of Excellence Middle School faces significant challenges, including much higher chronic absenteeism rates (31.1%) compared to the Hillsborough district (28.6%) and the state average (33.7%). Academically, the school consistently underperforms nearby schools and district/state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 13% to 25% in English Language Arts and Math. The school has been ranked in the bottom 10% of Florida middle schools and has received a 0 or 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating poor overall performance.

Compared to nearby magnet schools like Terrace Community Middle School and Williams Middle Magnet School, Village Of Excellence Middle School is significantly underperforming. This may be exacerbated by the school's high concentration of economically disadvantaged students, with 92.93% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.3, the school's challenges appear to require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and close the achievement gap.

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.
