Rosemary Middle

Summary:

Rosemary Middle is a public middle school located in Andrews, South Carolina, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 378 students. The school is part of the Georgetown 01 school district, which is ranked 44 out of 75 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Rosemary Middle consistently underperforms compared to the Georgetown 01 district and the state of South Carolina in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 30.4% of 6th graders, 28.8% of 7th graders, and 31.4% of 8th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the district's 47.3%, 40.1%, and 46.3%, respectively. The school's mathematics proficiency rates are even lower, with only 19.2% of 6th graders, 15.2% of 7th graders, and 14.3% of 8th graders meeting or exceeding the standards. Additionally, Rosemary Middle has a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate, indicating that all of its students come from low-income households, which is a significant factor that likely contributes to the school's academic challenges.

When compared to the nearby Carvers Bay Middle STEAM Academy and Georgetown Middle, Rosemary Middle consistently underperforms in academic measures, despite being part of the same school district. This suggests that the challenges faced by Rosemary Middle are unique and may require specific interventions and strategies to address the school's consistently low academic performance, high percentage of low-income students, and racial disparities in its student population, which is predominantly African American.

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.
