Northeast Middle

Summary:

Northeast Middle is a public middle school located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, serving 501 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Minneapolis Public School District, which is ranked 322 out of 463 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Northeast Middle faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, racial disparities, and socioeconomic factors. The school consistently ranks in the bottom half of Minnesota middle schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years. Its proficiency rates on the MCA-III assessments are significantly lower than the state and district averages, particularly in math and science. The school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 56.99% to 71.87% over the past three years, indicating a higher concentration of students from low-income families. When compared to nearby schools like Highview Middle School and St. Anthony Middle, which serve more affluent and less diverse student populations, Northeast Middle consistently performs worse academically.

The school's diverse student population, with 32.34% White, 34.53% African American, 12.97% Hispanic, 2.79% Asian, and 8.38% Native American students, is higher than many of the nearby schools. However, the performance data shows significant gaps in academic achievement between different racial groups, with White students consistently outperforming their African American, Hispanic, and Native American peers. These challenges suggest that Northeast Middle may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the unique needs of its diverse student population and improve overall academic 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.
