Summary:
The Hennepin Schools district in Minnesota has only one middle school, Hennepin Schools Upper Campus, which serves students in grades 5-8. This school faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance and rankings compared to other middle schools in the state.
Hennepin Schools Upper Campus has a student population that is predominantly African American (89.39%) and has a very high rate of free/reduced lunch recipients (98.48%), indicating a high-need student population. The school's proficiency rates in math, reading, and science are well below the state averages across all grade levels, with the school ranking in the bottom 40% of Minnesota middle schools in recent years. The school's student-teacher ratio of 16.5 to 1 is relatively high, which may contribute to the challenges in improving academic outcomes.
Overall, the data suggests that Hennepin Schools Upper Campus is a struggling middle school that faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. Addressing the academic performance gaps and supporting the needs of the school's high-need student population should be a priority for the Hennepin Schools district and school leadership.
