Lyle Middle School

Summary:

Lyle Middle School is a public middle school in Lyle, Washington, serving 49 students in grades 6-8. The school has a diverse student population, with a majority of White students and a significant Hispanic and Native American presence. However, the school faces significant academic challenges, with consistently low test scores compared to state averages.

Lyle Middle School's academic performance, as measured by standardized tests, is significantly below the state averages. Only 28.89% of students are proficient or better in English Language Arts, and just 9.09% are proficient or better in math, compared to state averages of 52.86% and 41.04%, respectively. The school's performance in science is better, with 50% of students proficient or better, but still lags behind the state average of 48.75%. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $19,359, compared to the state average of $13,776, the academic outcomes remain poor, suggesting that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to the school's struggles.

In comparison, the nearby Wayne M Henkle Middle School and Wallace & Priscilla Stevenson Intermediate School, both part of the White Salmon Valley School District, generally outperform Lyle Middle School in academic measures, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science. This suggests that the challenges faced by Lyle Middle School may be unique to the school or district, and addressing these issues should be a priority for the school and community.

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.
