Summary:
Milton Area School District has one middle school, Milton Area Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's academic performance is mixed, with strengths in science proficiency but weaknesses in math. The student population faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with nearly all students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Milton Area Middle School has an enrollment of 427 students, with a predominantly white student body (80.8%). The school's PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment) scores show that 32.4% of students are proficient in math, 63.8% are proficient in science, and 59.4% are proficient in English Language Arts. These scores are a mix of above and below the district and state averages. The school's performance has fluctuated over the past few years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 250 to 306 out of 797 to 893 Pennsylvania middle schools.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.1 to 1 and a per-student spending of $18,499. However, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (99.77%) indicates that the school serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, which may contribute to its academic performance. The school's resource allocation and fluctuating performance suggest opportunities for further exploration and potential improvement strategies to support student learning.
