Mannington Middle School

Summary:

Mannington Middle School is a public middle school in Mannington, West Virginia, serving 251 students in grades 5-8. The school is part of the Marion County Schools district, which is ranked 9th out of 55 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Mannington Middle School stands out for its significantly higher percentage of white students (96.02%) compared to the state average and nearby schools like East Fairmont Middle School and West Fairmont Middle School. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by state assessments, is generally lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, the school's 8th-grade math proficiency rate was 35.7%, compared to 41.1% for the district and 28.7% for the state. Mannington Middle School's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 39th out of 172 West Virginia middle schools in 2013-2014 to 132nd out of 170 in 2017-2018, with a current ranking of 73rd out of 169 for 2023-2024 and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance has shown a declining trend over the years, and there are significant disparities in performance between different student subgroups, such as gender and disability status. These challenges, combined with the school's lack of racial diversity and its relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, suggest that Mannington Middle School may need to implement targeted interventions and support to address these issues and improve the educational experiences of its students.

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.
