Montgomery Village Middle

Summary:

Montgomery Village Middle is a public middle school in Montgomery Village, Maryland, serving 773 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Montgomery County Public Schools district, which is ranked 7th out of 25 districts in Maryland and has a 4-star rating.

Montgomery Village Middle faces significant challenges compared to nearby schools. The school has a much higher percentage of Hispanic students (58.73%) and a lower percentage of White students (4.79%) than surrounding schools like Ridgeview Middle, Kingsview Middle, and Hallie Wells Middle. Additionally, Montgomery Village Middle has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Maryland middle schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, and its proficiency rates in MCAP/English Language Arts and MCAP/Mathematics are significantly lower than the district and state averages.

The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 73.32% to 80.21%, is also significantly higher than nearby schools. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of around $18,000, Montgomery Village Middle's low academic performance suggests that factors beyond just funding, such as curriculum, instruction, and school climate, may be contributing to the school's challenges. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that focuses on improving instruction, supporting students' social-emotional needs, and fostering stronger community engagement.

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.
