Middle Schools in Loyal School District

Loyal School District has only one middle school, Loyal Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. Located in Loyal, Wisconsin, the school has faced fluctuating performance in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 305 out of 641 middle schools in 2023-2024 to 425 out of 617 in 2021-2022. The school's academic performance, as measured by the SchoolDigger rating, has also varied, from 3 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024 to 2 stars out of 5 in the previous two years.

Loyal Middle School's test score performance compared to the state averages has been mixed, with the school outperforming the state in some subjects and grade levels, but underperforming in others. The school's dropout rate for 2022-2023 was 0.0%, which is a positive indicator, but its chronic absenteeism rate of 6.3% is slightly higher than the state's average. The school has a relatively small student population of 111 students and a student-teacher ratio of 14.4, which is slightly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's free and reduced-price lunch rate of 46.85% indicates that a significant proportion of its students come from low-income families.

Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending of $14,352 for the 2019-2020 school year, the data suggests that Loyal Middle School may be facing challenges in maintaining consistent academic achievement and addressing the unique needs of its student population. To better understand the school's performance and identify areas for improvement, further analysis of student growth metrics, teacher qualifications, and specific interventions or programs implemented by the school would be beneficial.
