North Oldham Middle School consistently ranks among the top 12 middle schools in Kentucky, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is exceptional, with proficiency rates in core subjects like Mathematics, Reading, Science, and Writing significantly higher than the Oldham County and Kentucky state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 73% of 6th-grade students at North Oldham Middle School were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 59% in Oldham County and 42% statewide. The school also performs exceptionally well across various student subgroups, including Female, Male, Asian, Hispanic, and White students, ranking among the top 20 middle schools in Kentucky for Hispanic and Multi-racial student performance.

While North Oldham Middle School excels in overall academic achievement, it faces challenges in supporting its Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) student populations, which perform at lower levels compared to their peers. The school's strong performance can be attributed to factors such as a relatively low student-teacher ratio, higher per-student spending, and a more affluent student population, as evidenced by the school's low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients compared to nearby schools in the Jefferson County School District.

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.
