Summary:

Bearden Middle School is a public middle school in Knoxville, Tennessee, serving 1,187 students in grades 6-8. As part of the Knox County School District, which is ranked 72 out of 139 districts in the state, Bearden Middle School has a diverse student population and a strong academic performance compared to other middle schools in Tennessee.

Bearden Middle School stands out for its racial diversity, with 59.31% White, 18.11% African American, and 13.98% Hispanic students. Academically, the school has consistently ranked in the top half of Tennessee middle schools, maintaining a 3-4 star rating from SchoolDigger. However, there are notable performance gaps between different student subgroups, with White and male students generally performing better than African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students. The school's academic achievement, as measured by TNReady assessments, is generally above the Knox County and Tennessee averages, but there are areas of concern, such as the relatively lower performance in 8th-grade mathematics.

Compared to nearby schools, Bearden Middle School's performance is stronger than some, such as Vine Middle/Magnet, South Doyle Middle, and Northwest Middle, which have lower statewide rankings and academic proficiency rates. However, schools like Farragut Middle and West Valley Middle outperform Bearden Middle in many areas, suggesting that Bearden could learn from their practices and strategies to further improve and address the equity gaps within its diverse student population.

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.
