Mountain View Middle School

Summary:

Mountain View Middle School is a public middle school in Mountain View, Arkansas, serving 369 students in grades 5-8 and part of the Mountain View School District, which is ranked 72 out of 252 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

The school has consistently performed above the state average in English Language Arts, Reading, and Science proficiency, with its Algebra proficiency rate significantly higher than the district and state averages. However, its Mathematics performance has been more mixed, with some grade levels performing above the state average and others below. The school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.4 to 12.2 students per teacher, and spends $9,879 per student, which is higher than the state average. Notably, the school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 99.19% to 100% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch over the past three school years.

Overall, Mountain View Middle School appears to be a strong-performing school, particularly in ELA, Reading, and Science, despite the challenges of serving a high-poverty student population. The school's academic performance, low student-teacher ratio, and relatively high per-student spending suggest a well-resourced and effective educational program, though the school may need to focus on improving its Mathematics performance to ensure all students are achieving at high levels.

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.
