Joseph Lane Middle School

Summary:

Joseph Lane Middle School is a public middle school located in Roseburg, Oregon, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 583 students. The school is part of the Douglas County School District 4, which is ranked 55 out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Joseph Lane Middle School consistently outperforms the Douglas County School District 4 and the state of Oregon in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across all grade levels. In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates are generally on par with or slightly above the district and state averages, with the exception of 8th-grade Math, where the school's proficiency rate is higher. The school's 8th-grade Science proficiency rate is also significantly higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school performs exceptionally well with its Hispanic and Multi-racial student populations, ranking among the top middle schools in Oregon for these subgroups, but its performance with Special Education students is an area of concern.

Despite having a high percentage of students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage, Joseph Lane Middle School's performance with low-socioeconomic status students is strong, ranking in the top middle schools in Oregon for this subgroup. The school's higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio compared to the state average suggest that the district is investing significant resources in the school, which may be contributing to its academic success. Overall, Joseph Lane Middle School appears to be a strong-performing school within the Douglas County School District 4, with a focus on academic excellence, equity, and efficient resource allocation.

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.
