Log College Middle School

Summary:

Log College Middle School is a public middle school located in Warminster, Pennsylvania, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 632 students. The school is part of the Centennial School District, which is ranked 365 out of 606 school districts in Pennsylvania and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Log College Middle School has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (23.89%) and Asian (4.91%) students, its academic performance, as measured by PSSA test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in PSSA Math for all grades was 27.5%, compared to the Centennial School District average of 36.9% and the Pennsylvania state average of 39.3%. The school's performance also varies significantly among different student subgroups, with Unami Middle School, part of the higher-performing Central Bucks School District, having significantly higher PSSA proficiency rates in Math, Science, and English Language Arts.

Despite these challenges, Log College Middle School has maintained a 0.0% dropout rate for the past several years, and the school has seen a steady increase in spending per student, from $19,869 in 2018-2019 to $23,541 in 2021-2022, suggesting a focus on resource allocation to support student learning. However, the school's racial makeup has become less diverse over the past few years, and the significant disparities in student subgroup performance, with English Language Learners and Multi-racial students performing better than their White and Low Socioeconomic Status peers on PSSA tests, indicate a need for continued efforts to address these areas of concern and implement targeted interventions to improve the overall performance and provide a more equitable educational experience for all students at Log College Middle School.

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.
