Summary:
Appomattox County Public Schools has a single middle school, Appomattox Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. Located in Appomattox, Virginia, the school has a diverse student population with a mix of racial backgrounds, and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges.
Academically, Appomattox Middle performs well in certain subject areas, such as 8th-grade Algebra I, 7th-grade Mathematics, and 8th-grade Civics and Economics, where the school's proficiency rates exceed the state average. However, the school's performance in 6th-grade and 8th-grade Mathematics, as well as 8th-grade Writing, falls slightly below the state average, suggesting room for improvement in these areas.
Despite these challenges, Appomattox Middle has shown steady progress in recent years, improving its ranking from 220 out of 415 Virginia middle schools in 2021-2022 to 148 out of 417 in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's 3-star rating from SchoolDigger reflects its overall solid performance, and its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.4 may be a contributing factor to its academic success. As Appomattox County Public Schools continues to support Appomattox Middle, the school has the potential to further enhance its academic offerings and better serve its diverse student population.
