New Code Academy Middle School

Summary:

New Code Academy Middle School is a public virtual middle school located in Bloomington, Minnesota, serving grades 6-8 with an enrollment of 82 students. While the school is part of the Bloomington Public School District, which is ranked 271 out of 463 districts in Minnesota and has a 2-star rating, New Code Academy Middle School stands out in several key ways.

Compared to nearby middle schools, New Code Academy Middle School has a more diverse student population, with 41.46% White, 21.95% African American, 25.61% Hispanic, 4.88% Asian, and 6.1% two or more races. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCA-III), is significantly lower than the district and state averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in Math, Reading, and Science were all below the district and state levels. Despite this, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.5, compared to the nearby schools, which range from 16.9 to 37.7.

Further analysis reveals that New Code Academy Middle School's academic performance has been declining over the past two years, and the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (52.44%) may present unique challenges that contribute to the lower academic outcomes. When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Justice Page Middle and Black Hawk Middle, New Code Academy Middle School's performance lags behind, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to help improve student outcomes.

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.
