Lebanon Middle School

Summary:

Lebanon Middle School is a public secondary school located in Lebanon, Kentucky, serving grades 8-9 with a total enrollment of 541 students. The school is part of the Marion County School District, which is ranked 63 out of 159 districts in Kentucky and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Lebanon Middle School's proficiency rates in core subjects like Mathematics, Reading, and Social Studies are generally lower than the state averages, they are higher than the Marion County district averages. The school's proficiency rates have shown some fluctuations over the past few years, with a dip in 2021-2022 followed by a slight recovery in 2022-2023. The school serves a population with a higher proportion of students from low-income families, with 60.44% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

The school's per-student spending for the 2018-2019 school year was $9,342, and the student-teacher ratio has fluctuated between 16.8 and 18.5 over the past three school years, indicating a relatively small class size compared to the state average. However, the academic performance data suggests that the school may face challenges in ensuring its students are meeting the expected academic standards, and the high percentage of students from low-income families may contribute to these challenges. By addressing these areas and optimizing the use of available resources, Lebanon Middle School may be able to improve student outcomes and better support the learning and development of its diverse student population.

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.
