MacIntyre Park Middle School

Summary:

MacIntyre Park Middle School is a public middle school in Thomasville, Georgia, serving 558 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Thomasville City School District, which is ranked 150 out of 203 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high spending per student and improved student-teacher ratio, MacIntyre Park Middle School has consistently underperformed compared to the state and nearby schools, such as Washington Middle School in Grady County and Thomas County Middle School in Thomas County. The school's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science have been significantly lower than the state averages, and its ranking has declined from 240 out of 542 schools in 2020-2021 to 428 out of 588 schools in 2023-2024, with its SchoolDigger rating dropping from 3 stars to 1 star during this period.

One of the key challenges facing MacIntyre Park Middle School is its extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 91.58% to 100% in recent years. This high concentration of students from low-income backgrounds may be contributing to the school's academic struggles, suggesting a need for targeted support and resources to address the unique needs of this population. Addressing the root causes of the school's consistently low performance and declining ranking will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach that focuses on improving instructional practices, providing targeted support for students, and ensuring efficient resource allocation to meet the needs of the school community.

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.
