Summary:
The Ely Public School District in Minnesota has only one middle school, Memorial Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages, with some fluctuations in its ranking and rating over the years. Memorial Middle School's student population is predominantly White, with a significant proportion of economically disadvantaged students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Memorial Middle School's proficiency rates on the MCA-III assessments vary, with reading scores above the district and state averages, but math and science scores below. The school's performance has been inconsistent, with a decline from a 4-star rating in 2021-2022 to a 3-star rating in the following two years. This suggests the need for further investigation and potential areas for improvement within the school.
Demographically, Memorial Middle School's student population is predominantly White, with relatively low representation of other racial and ethnic groups. Additionally, a significant proportion of students (35.57%) are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the school serves a population with significant economic challenges. These factors could be important considerations in understanding the school's resource needs and the potential impact of socioeconomic factors on student performance.
