Northwest Middle

Summary:

Northwest Middle is a public middle school located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, serving grades 6-8 with a student population of 887. The school is part of the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools district, which is ranked 164 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Northwest Middle has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of African American (41.38%) and Hispanic (40.25%) students compared to the district and state averages. However, the school consistently underperforms compared to the district and state in standardized test scores, with only 35.1% of 6th-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 45.7% in the district and 54.3% statewide. Northwest Middle has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of North Carolina middle schools, with a 0 or 1-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, and its performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as male students, Hispanic students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

When comparing Northwest Middle to other nearby schools in the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools district, it becomes clear that Northwest Middle is an outlier in terms of academic performance and student demographics. For example, Meadowlark Middle and Lewisville Middle, which are also in the district, consistently outperform Northwest Middle and rank in the top quartile of North Carolina middle schools. The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students and the racial/ethnic composition of the student population at Northwest Middle may be contributing factors to the school's low academic performance, but the data suggests that there is room for improvement with targeted interventions and support.

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.
