Haynes Middle

Summary:

Haynes Middle is a public middle school in Nashville, Tennessee, serving 291 students in grades 6-8. The school has a predominantly African American student population, with 79.38% of students identifying as African American. Unfortunately, Haynes Middle has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing middle schools in Tennessee, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is among the lowest-performing schools in the state.

Haynes Middle significantly underperforms compared to the state and Davidson County averages on standardized tests. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 5.8% of Haynes Middle students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 39.7% statewide and 29.5% in Davidson County. Similarly, only 7% of Haynes Middle students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 37.6% statewide and 29.6% in Davidson County. The school's performance is consistently low across all subject areas and grade levels, particularly for its African American, Hispanic, and Special Education student subgroups.

Interestingly, Haynes Middle's performance is significantly lower than that of nearby schools, such as Meigs Middle and Head Middle, which rank among the top-performing middle schools in the state. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Meigs Middle had 92.4% of students proficient or better in Mathematics, while Head Middle had 56.2% proficient or better. Despite relatively high per-student spending, Haynes Middle's performance has remained consistently low over the past decade, suggesting the school has struggled to implement effective strategies 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.
