Neal Middle faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates on state tests that are well below the district and state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 27% of 6th-grade students were proficient in mathematics, compared to 46.4% in the Durham Public Schools district and 54.3% statewide. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students (over 99%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high concentration of students from low-income families. Despite this, Neal Middle's per-student spending of $12,097 is higher than most nearby schools, which range from $8,836 to $11,998 per student.

Interestingly, there are significant racial disparities in academic performance at Neal Middle. In the 2023-2024 school year, the proficiency rate for African American students in mathematics was 263 out of 560 North Carolina middle schools, while the rate for Hispanic students was 499 out of 564 schools. This suggests that the school may need to focus on addressing the unique needs and challenges faced by different student subgroups. Nearby schools, particularly the magnet schools like Rogers-Herr Middle and Lakewood Montessori Middle, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance than Neal Middle across all subject areas and grade levels, highlighting the potential impact of school choice and specialized programs on 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.

I was once a student here, and let me just tell you that the staff, students, and administration are all so utterly poor that I suffered a severe mental breakdown here, to the point where I had to take a week off of school, and eventually up and leave in the end because it was all so bad. I wouldn't even send my worst enemy here. Close Quote

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.
