North Bend Middle School

Summary:

North Bend Middle School is a public middle school serving 494 students in grades 6-8 in North Bend, Oregon, which is part of the North Bend School District 13. While the school has some notable strengths, it also faces significant challenges in maintaining overall academic achievement and addressing equity concerns for certain student subgroups.

One of the school's key strengths is its performance for Hispanic students, which ranks very highly at 5 out of 5 stars. However, the school underperforms the district and state averages in several areas, including 8th grade English Language Arts, 6th-8th grade Math, and 8th grade Science. This performance gap has been consistent over the past few years, and the school's statewide ranking has steadily declined, dropping from 194 out of 384 Oregon middle schools in 2017-2018 to 167 out of 371 in 2023-2024. The school also struggles with equity issues, as it ranks much lower for White students and students with special needs compared to other subgroups.

Despite spending significantly more per student ($14,906 in 2021-2022) than the nearby Marshfield Junior High ($8,088 in 2021-2022), North Bend Middle School's higher student-teacher ratio (19.2 in 2022-2023 vs. 23.1 at Marshfield Junior High) and its high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch (68.22% in 2022-2023 vs. 40.6% at Marshfield Junior High) suggest that the school may be facing challenges in effectively allocating its resources and addressing the needs of its more economically disadvantaged population.

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.
