Summary:

William E. Waters Middle is a public middle school in Portsmouth, Virginia, serving 534 students in grades 7-8. The school is part of the Portsmouth City Public Schools district, which is ranked 115 out of 130 districts in Virginia and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

William E. Waters Middle faces significant academic and demographic challenges. The school has a much higher percentage of African American students (70.6%) compared to the surrounding schools and the state average. Additionally, the school has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 95.26% to 98.88% over the past few years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Academically, the school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Virginia middle schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years. The school's performance on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests is significantly lower than the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels.

Despite being located in the same district, William E. Waters Middle is surrounded by several higher-performing middle schools, such as Churchland Middle and Cradock Middle, which have better academic outcomes and higher SchoolDigger ratings. The school's challenges do not seem to be solely related to staffing or class sizes, as the student-teacher ratio has remained relatively low. However, the increased funding over the years has not translated into improved academic performance, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the underlying factors contributing to the school's struggles.

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.
