Darlington Middle

Summary:

Darlington Middle is a public middle school serving 919 students in grades 6-8 in Darlington, South Carolina, which is part of the Darlington 01 school district. Despite increased per-student spending, the school has consistently underperformed compared to state and district averages, with low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Darlington Middle's academic challenges are compounded by significant achievement gaps between racial and socioeconomic subgroups, as well as its high poverty rate, with all students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Darlington Middle's performance is generally lower than nearby schools in the Darlington 01 district, such as Hartsville Middle and Spaulding Middle, as well as schools in the Florence 01 district. The school's ranking among South Carolina middle schools has remained relatively stagnant over the past decade, consistently ranking in the bottom half of the state with a 2-star rating.

The wide achievement gaps between racial and socioeconomic subgroups at Darlington Middle are particularly concerning, with the school's African American students performing better than the overall student population, but its White and multi-racial students struggling. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address these inequities. Additionally, the increased per-student spending has not translated into improved academic outcomes, raising questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and the need to ensure that funding is being directed towards evidence-based strategies that can drive student success.

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.
