Trek North Middle School

Summary:

Trek North Middle School is a public charter school located in Bemidji, Minnesota, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 114 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 42.98% White, 6.14% Hispanic, 43.86% Native American, and 7.02% two or more races.

Despite its diverse student body, Bemidji Middle School consistently outperforms Trek North Middle School in academic metrics. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 14.41% of Trek North students were proficient or better in MCA-III Math, compared to the state average of 45.47%. Similarly, in reading, 37.84% of Trek North students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 49.85%. This underperformance is likely influenced by the school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 68.42% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than the nearby Bemidji Public School District at 47.48%.

When compared to other nearby middle schools, such as Cass Lake-Bena Middle School and Voyageurs Expeditionary Middle School, which serve similar student populations, Trek North Middle School performs significantly worse academically. This trend is concerning and may indicate a need for intervention and support to improve student outcomes. Additionally, Trek North Middle School has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 27.4, which could be a contributing factor to its underperformance compared to the lower ratios of 10 and 9.8 at the nearby schools.

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.
