Glasgow Middle School

Summary:

Glasgow Middle School is a public middle school in Glasgow, Montana, serving 177 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Glasgow K-12 Schools district, which is ranked 189 out of 300 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

Glasgow Middle School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (85.88%) compared to the state average, as well as a higher percentage of Native American students (6.21%). The school's performance on state tests is mixed, with lower proficiency rates in mathematics and reading compared to the state and district averages, but a higher science proficiency rate than the district. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 12th out of 156 middle schools in 2011-2012 to 109th out of 187 in the most recent year, with a 2-star rating.

Interestingly, the nearby Nashua 6-8 middle school, which is part of the Nashua K-12 Schools district, has a lower overall performance on state tests compared to Glasgow Middle School. However, Nashua 6-8 has a lower student-teacher ratio and a higher percentage of non-white students, which could be factors in its lower performance. Additionally, Glasgow Middle School's spending per student is lower than Nashua 6-8, which may contribute to the performance gap between the two schools.

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.
