AMY at Martin has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Pennsylvania middle schools over the past decade, with a current ranking of 762 out of 891 middle schools in the state.

AMY at Martin significantly underperforms compared to the district and state in standardized test scores, with only 8.9% of students proficient or better in PSSA Math and 23.2% in PSSA English Language Arts, compared to 21.8% and 34.2% for the district, respectively.

When compared to nearby middle schools in the Philadelphia City School District, such as Castor Gardens Middle School and Conwell Russell Middle School, AMY at Martin is among the lowest-performing. The school's poor performance is particularly concerning for African American, Hispanic, and low-socioeconomic status students, who rank in the bottom 20% of Pennsylvania middle schools in PSSA Math and English Language Arts. Despite the high per-student spending of $22,537, AMY at Martin's academic outcomes suggest the school may not be effectively utilizing its resources to support student learning.

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.
