Northeastern Middle School

Summary:

Northeastern Middle School is a public middle school serving grades 7-8 in the Northeastern York School District, with an enrollment of 653 students as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school has a diverse student body, with a gradual decrease in its white student population over the past few years.

Academically, Northeastern Middle School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 114th out of 797 Pennsylvania middle schools in 2020-2021 to 369th out of 893 in 2022-2023. Its PSSA test scores are also below the district and state averages in most subject areas and grade levels. However, the school performs relatively well for its African American and multi-racial student subgroups, ranking 96th and 85th out of Pennsylvania middle schools, respectively, in 2022-2023. Conversely, its Hispanic, white, and economically disadvantaged student subgroups perform below average, ranking 129th, 339th, and 476th, respectively. Despite these academic challenges, Northeastern Middle School has maintained a very low dropout rate, with 0.3% in 2022-2023 and 0.0% in the previous four years.

Interestingly, Northeastern Middle School has seen a steady increase in its per-student spending, from $13,797 in 2019-2020 to $15,151 in 2021-2022. However, the school has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 16.1 in 2022-2023, compared to nearby schools like Elizabethtown Area Middle School and Dover Area Middle School. This high student-teacher ratio may be a contributing factor to the school's academic challenges, as it could make it more difficult for teachers to provide individualized attention and support to students.

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.
