Linton-Stockton Middle School

Summary:

Linton-Stockton Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Linton, Indiana, with a student population of 312. The school is part of the Linton-Stockton School Corporation, which is ranked 147 out of 381 school districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

While the school has seen some improvements, such as increased spending per student and a more favorable student-teacher ratio, it faces several challenges. Linton-Stockton Middle School's test scores are generally below the state averages in both English Language Arts and Math, with proficiency rates of 38.36% in ELA and 34.75% in Math, compared to the state averages of 41.1-42.6% in ELA and 31.4-38.1% in Math. The school has also experienced a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 12.4% in 2021-2022 to 15.2% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.94% to 51.92% over the past three years, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Sullivan Middle School, which is part of the same school district, Linton-Stockton Middle School generally performs worse on test scores, with lower proficiency rates in both ELA and Math. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 94th out of 494 Indiana middle schools in 2015-2016 (4-star rating) to 202nd out of 485 in the current year (3-star rating), suggesting room for improvement. Addressing these challenges and implementing strategies to improve student outcomes should be a priority for the school and the district.

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.
