Summary:

Muhlenberg North Middle is a public middle school in Greenville, Kentucky, serving 507 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Muhlenberg County School District, which is ranked 133 out of 159 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Muhlenberg North Middle has consistently underperformed compared to the state and county averages across various academic measures. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics range from 14% (6th grade) to 37% (7th grade), significantly lower than the county and state averages. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of different student subgroups, with rankings for female, male, white, and low-income students all in the bottom half of Kentucky middle schools. While the school's performance for disabled and gifted/talented students is relatively better, it still lags behind the state averages.

Interestingly, James Madison Middle School and South Hopkins Middle School, which are within a 20-mile radius of Muhlenberg North Middle and part of the Hopkins County district, consistently outperform Muhlenberg North Middle. Additionally, Muhlenberg South Middle School, a fellow Muhlenberg County school, also outperforms Muhlenberg North Middle, suggesting that factors within the district or school-level leadership may be contributing to the performance gap.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
