Owen Middle's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better on End-of-Grade (EOG) tests, is generally below the Buncombe County Schools and North Carolina state averages. The school's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from being ranked 246 out of 694 North Carolina middle schools in 2015-2016 to 544 out of 793 in 2023-2024, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

When compared to the nearby middle schools in the Buncombe County Schools district, such as North Buncombe Middle and Cane Creek Middle, Owen Middle generally underperforms academically. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Owen Middle (62.44%) is notably higher than the nearby schools, which range from 35.84% to 76.4%, suggesting that Owen Middle serves a more economically disadvantaged population, which may contribute to its lower academic performance. To address these challenges, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and support programs to improve student outcomes, particularly for underperforming subgroups.

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.
