Shallotte Middle

Summary:

Shallotte Middle is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Shallotte, North Carolina, with a student population of 674. The school is part of the Brunswick County Schools district, which is ranked 78 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Shallotte Middle consistently outperforms the Brunswick County Schools district and the state of North Carolina in standardized test scores, with a 69.6% 8th-grade science proficiency rate compared to 66.8% for the district and 70.1% for the state. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 15.6 to 17.1 over the past three school years, which is lower than the nearby South Brunswick Middle (15.1) and Cedar Grove Middle (14.4), indicating a potentially more personalized learning environment. However, Shallotte Middle has an exceptionally high percentage of students (over 99%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a high concentration of students from low-income families.

While Shallotte Middle has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, its performance varies across different student subgroups. Male students generally outperform female students, and African American and Hispanic students tend to have lower proficiency rates compared to their White and multi-racial peers. The school's ranking for students with disabilities and gifted/talented students is also relatively low. Nearby schools, such as South Brunswick Middle and Cedar Grove Middle, have similar demographic profiles and performance levels, while Nakina Middle, which is in a different school district, has lower overall performance but higher proficiency rates in 8th-grade science.

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.
