Holland Middle School

Summary:

Holland Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 4-8 in the West Seneca Central School District in Holland, NY, with a student population of 231 and a predominantly White (94.81%) racial makeup.

While Holland Middle School has a relatively high spending per student at $17,037, its academic performance on state assessments is inconsistent across grade levels and subjects. The school excels in some areas, such as 5th and 7th grade ELA and 7th grade Math, but struggles in others, particularly 4th grade ELA and Math. This suggests a need to examine their curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to ensure more consistent and strong academic outcomes. Additionally, the school has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (37.66%) compared to some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as Orchard Park Middle School (14.64%) and East Aurora Middle School (13.65%), which may indicate a need for targeted interventions and resources to support economically disadvantaged students.

When comparing Holland Middle School to the nearby schools, it becomes evident that there are significant differences in academic performance, racial makeup, and socioeconomic factors. This highlights the importance of considering the unique context and characteristics of each school when analyzing and interpreting the data. By closely examining the key metrics and comparing the school to its nearby counterparts, school leaders and the community can identify opportunities to enhance the educational experience and outcomes for the students at Holland Middle School.

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.
