Summary:
The La Center School District in Washington state has only one middle school, La Center Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance on standardized tests is generally below the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Science, suggesting potential areas for improvement in the school's curriculum and instructional practices.
La Center Middle School has a predominantly White student population, with relatively low percentages of minority students, which may indicate a need to explore ways to promote diversity and inclusivity within the school community. Additionally, the school's free/reduced lunch rate of 32.12% suggests a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which could impact academic performance and resource needs.
The school's ranking and star rating by SchoolDigger have fluctuated over the past three years, with a dip in the 2021-2022 school year followed by a slight improvement in the 2022-2023 school year. This highlights the need for consistent and sustained efforts to improve the school's overall performance, despite the relatively high spending per student ($14,635) and low student-teacher ratio (19:1).
