Middle Schools in Glide School District 12

Glide School District 12 in Oregon has only one middle school, Glide Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has declined in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 218 out of 367 Oregon middle schools in 2021-2022 to 265 out of 371 in 2023-2024. Glide Middle School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (28.1%) and Mathematics (13.8%) for 8th-grade students are significantly lower than the state averages (40.6% and 26.4%, respectively).

Despite having a relatively small student population of 123 and higher per-student spending ($13,764) compared to the state average, Glide Middle School's academic outcomes are underperforming. The school's student-teacher ratio of 17.1 is slightly lower than the typical class size in Oregon middle schools, suggesting that the school has access to more resources. However, this does not appear to be translating into better academic performance for the students.

The data indicates that Glide Middle School may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student learning and achievement. While the reasons for the school's declining performance are not entirely clear from the available information, further investigation and a closer look at the school's programs, teaching practices, and support systems could help identify areas for improvement and guide the district's efforts to support the success of its students.
