Raleigh Egypt Middle School

Summary:

Raleigh Egypt Middle School is a public middle school in Memphis, Tennessee, serving around 490 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Memphis-Shelby County Schools district, which is ranked 134 out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Raleigh Egypt Middle School faces significant academic challenges, consistently performing well below state and district averages on standardized tests. In 2023-2024, only 15.7% of students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 39.7% statewide and 20% for the Memphis-Shelby County district. The school's performance is particularly low for African American and low-socioeconomic status students, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Tennessee middle schools for these subgroups. However, the school's Hispanic students perform relatively better, ranking in the top 40% of Tennessee middle schools in Mathematics and the top 20% in English Language Arts.

While Raleigh Egypt Middle School's overall performance is concerning, the school has some bright spots. Its performance for English Language Learners and male students is a notable strength, with the school ranking in the top 10% of Tennessee middle schools for these subgroups. In contrast, the school's performance for female students, special education students, and low-socioeconomic status students is significantly lower, indicating that the school may need to focus more on addressing the needs of these subgroups. Additionally, the school's relatively low per-student spending and higher student-teacher ratio compared to the district average may be contributing to its overall low academic performance, suggesting that the school may need additional resources and support to improve student outcomes.

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.
