Summary:
There is only one middle school located in the city of Alliance, Nebraska - Alliance Middle School. This school serves students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Alliance Public Schools district.
Alliance Middle School has an enrollment of 286 students, with a diverse student population that is 61.19% White, 25.87% Hispanic, 6.29% Native American, 4.9% two or more races, 1.05% Asian, and 0.7% African American. The school faces socioeconomic challenges, with 56.99% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Academically, the school's performance on the NSCAS tests is consistently below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, including English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $15,557 and a low student-teacher ratio of 13.4, the academic results suggest that simply increasing funding and resources may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes. The school's challenges may be reflective of broader issues within the Alliance Public Schools district or the state's education system, and a more comprehensive approach may be needed to address the underlying factors contributing to the school's underperformance.
