West Hoke Middle

Summary:

West Hoke Middle is a public middle school in Raeford, North Carolina, serving 576 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Hoke County Schools district, which is ranked 167 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

West Hoke Middle has a diverse student population, with significant representation of African American (42.19%), Hispanic (22.57%), and Native American (10.59%) students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better in EOG (End-of-Grade) tests, is generally lower than the state and district averages. The school performs relatively well for African American and Hispanic students compared to other schools, but there are significant gaps between these subgroups and their White and Asian peers. With over 99% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, West Hoke Middle faces challenges in effectively allocating resources to support student learning.

When compared to nearby schools, such as John R. Griffin Middle and Seventy-First Classical Middle, West Hoke Middle generally underperforms in academic metrics, with lower proficiency rates in Mathematics and Reading. However, the school's diverse student population and the relatively strong performance of African American and Hispanic students suggest that there may be opportunities to learn from successful practices and apply them more broadly to improve overall academic 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.

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.
