Eastern Guilford Middle

Summary:

Eastern Guilford Middle is a public middle school in Gibsonville, North Carolina, serving 980 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Guilford County Schools district, which is ranked 149 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a large school district, Eastern Guilford Middle has consistently struggled academically, ranking in the bottom half of North Carolina middle schools over the past several years. The school's performance on state standardized tests is below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, particularly for Asian, Hispanic, and multi-racial students, as well as for students with disabilities, English Language Learners, and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds. With 52-75% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Eastern Guilford Middle has a very high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to its academic challenges.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Kiser Middle, Mendenhall Middle, and Southeast Guilford Middle, Eastern Guilford Middle consistently underperforms, with lower state rankings and test scores. The area's two magnet schools, Lincoln Academy and Brown Summit Middle, stand out with significantly higher academic performance, suggesting that the magnet school model may be more effective in supporting student achievement.

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.
