Middle Schools in Midnimo Cross Cultural Middle School

Midnimo Cross Cultural Middle School is the sole middle school located in the Midnimo Cross Cultural Middle School district in Columbus, Ohio. Serving grades 6-8, the school has a diverse student population that is predominantly African American and Hispanic. However, the school's academic performance has been consistently below the statewide averages, particularly in Mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency.

While the school's 8th grade science proficiency rate is slightly above the state average, its overall proficiency rates in core subjects are concerning. The school's Mathematics proficiency rates range from 45.2% to 60%, compared to the statewide averages of 50.1% to 46.3%. Similarly, its English Language Arts proficiency rates range from 37.8% to 50%, compared to the statewide averages of 55.2% to 49.4%. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 39.5% is significantly higher than the state average, which may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance.

Despite the school's challenges, its funding and resources appear to be within the typical range for Ohio middle schools, with a spending per student of $7,214 and a student-teacher ratio of 19.1 to 1. However, it's unclear if these resources are being utilized effectively to support student learning and achievement. Further investigation into the school's instructional practices, student support systems, and resource allocation may be necessary to identify areas for improvement and develop targeted strategies to enhance student outcomes at Midnimo Cross Cultural Middle School.
