Summary:
The Clinton Community School District in Iowa has one middle school, Clinton Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. The school has an enrollment of 749 students and a student-teacher ratio of 13.4 to 1. While the school's academic performance in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science is generally lower than the statewide averages for Iowa, the school's challenges may be reflective of broader district-level issues.
Clinton Middle School's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates, is below the state averages in several areas. In English Language Arts, proficiency rates range from 65.4% to 70.2%, compared to the state averages of 74.5% to 77.5%. In Mathematics, proficiency rates range from 60.6% to 71.7%, compared to the state averages of 69.9% to 73.2%. In Science, the 8th-grade proficiency rate is 51.1%, compared to the state average of 65.5%. These lower-than-average academic performance metrics suggest that the school may need to focus on improving student learning outcomes.
Additionally, the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (58.61%) indicates that the school serves a population with a relatively low socioeconomic status, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school. The school's low ranking (278 out of 337) and 1-star rating from SchoolDigger also suggest that the school is performing below average compared to other middle schools in Iowa. These factors highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to address the school's performance and better serve the needs of its students.
