Summary:
The Woodland R-IV school district in Missouri has only one middle school, Woodland Middle, which serves students in grades 5-8. While the school has a relatively small enrollment of 261 students, it faces some challenges in terms of academic performance and the economic disadvantages of its student population.
Woodland Middle's student population is predominantly white, at 98.08%, which is significantly higher than the state average. This lack of diversity may impact the school's ability to prepare students for an increasingly diverse world. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in mathematics, science, and English language arts are generally below the state average, particularly in mathematics. However, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 13.7 is a positive characteristic that could be leveraged to provide more individualized attention and support for students.
Additionally, Woodland Middle has a high percentage of students, 56.32%, receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. This may require the school to allocate additional resources and support to address the needs of these students. Overall, while Woodland Middle faces some challenges, its small size and favorable student-teacher ratio provide opportunities for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
