Westmoreland Middle School

Summary:

Westmoreland Middle School is a public middle school in Westmoreland, Tennessee, serving around 430 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Sumner County School District, which is ranked 28th out of 139 districts in Tennessee and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Westmoreland Middle School stands out for its consistently strong academic performance, particularly in mathematics. The school's mathematics proficiency rate of 61% in 2023-2024 outpaced both the Sumner County and Tennessee state averages. While the school's English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency is slightly lower than the district average, it still exceeds the state average. Westmoreland Middle School also performs well in science and social studies, with its proficiency rates higher than the state averages. Notably, the school's female students, Hispanic students, and students with special education needs or from low socioeconomic backgrounds all perform exceptionally well, ranking among the top in the state for their respective subgroups.

Compared to nearby schools, Jim Satterfield Middle School in the Trousdale County district stands out as a high-performing school that exceeds Westmoreland Middle School's academic results across multiple subject areas. However, Westmoreland Middle School generally outperforms other schools in the Sumner County district, as well as Macon County Junior High School. The school's consistent high rankings and 4-star rating indicate that it is providing a quality education to its students, though the lack of racial diversity and potential areas for improvement in ELA proficiency are aspects the school and district may want to further examine.

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.
