Summary:
The Bristol City Public Schools district in Virginia has only one middle school, Virginia Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. While the school has some strong performance metrics, such as 100% proficiency in Algebra I and World History I for 8th graders, it generally ranks in the middle to lower range of Virginia middle schools according to the SchoolDigger rankings.
Virginia Middle has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 72.9% White, 9.03% African American, 4.93% Hispanic, 0.82% Asian, 0.21% Native American, and 12.11% two or more races. However, the school has an extremely high free/reduced lunch rate of over 100%, indicating a significant population of students from low-income households. This high poverty rate may present challenges in terms of providing resources and support for these students.
Compared to the state average, Virginia Middle's spending per student of $9,091 is relatively low, which could be a factor in the school's overall performance. While the school has shown exceptional performance in certain subject areas, its performance in other areas, such as Mathematics and English Reading, is more average or below average compared to state and district averages. Overall, Virginia Middle appears to be a relatively average-performing middle school within the Bristol City Public Schools district and the state of Virginia.
