Bloomfield Middle School

Q: Is Bloomfield Middle School a good school?

Bloomfield Middle School ranks 348 th of 485 Indiana middle schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 1 star out of 5.

Summary:

Bloomfield Middle School is a public middle school in Bloomfield, Indiana, serving 168 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Bloomfield School District, which is ranked 184 out of 381 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

While Bloomfield Middle School has seen a significant decrease in chronic absenteeism, from 11.2% to 4.5%, its academic performance remains a concern. The school's test scores in English Language Arts and Math are consistently lower than the state and district averages, and its ranking has declined from 293 out of 490 Indiana middle schools in 2021-2022 to 348 out of 485 in 2023-2024. This suggests a need for the school to focus on improving academic outcomes for its students. Additionally, the school's student population is predominantly white (92.26%), which is in contrast to the more diverse nearby schools, such as Linton-Stockton Middle School and Eastern Greene Middle School.

Another factor that may impact Bloomfield Middle School's performance is its lower spending per student ($5,936) compared to the nearby schools. This funding disparity could limit the resources and support available to students. The school and the Linton-Stockton School Corporation, Eastern Greene Schools, and White River Valley School District should explore strategies to address these challenges and provide equitable opportunities for all students.

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.
