Roseboro-Salemburg Middle

Summary:

Roseboro-Salemburg Middle is a public middle school in Roseboro, North Carolina, serving 406 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Sampson County Schools district, which is ranked 130 out of 242 districts in the state.

Roseboro-Salemburg Middle consistently underperforms compared to the district and state in standardized test scores, with proficiency rates ranging from 20.9% to 38.3% in math and 32.6% to 37.6% in reading, well below the district and state averages. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at over 99%, indicating a predominantly low-income student population. Roseboro-Salemburg Middle has ranked in the bottom quartile of North Carolina middle schools, with a ranking between 563 and 649 out of 793 schools.

While the school has a diverse student population, with roughly even distributions of White, African American, and Hispanic students, this diversity is not reflected in the academic performance, as the school's subgroup rankings show significant achievement gaps. Nearby schools in the Sampson County Schools district, such as Hobbton Middle and Union Middle, as well as Midway Middle in the neighboring Cumberland County Schools district, generally outperform Roseboro-Salemburg Middle, suggesting that factors beyond just the socioeconomic status of the student population may be contributing to the school's underperformance.

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.
