Summary:
The Culpeper County Public Schools district in Virginia is home to two high-performing middle schools: Culpeper Middle and Floyd T. Binns Middle. Both schools serve grades 6-8 and demonstrate strong academic achievement, particularly in advanced math courses, while also serving a diverse student population with high rates of economic disadvantage.
Culpeper Middle and Floyd T. Binns Middle excel in Geometry and Algebra I, with 100% proficiency rates in these subjects, outperforming the district and state averages. In Mathematics, the schools' proficiency rates are higher than the district and state in several grade levels. However, in English Reading, the schools' proficiency rates are lower than the state average but higher than the district average. Floyd T. Binns Middle also stands out with a higher proficiency rate than the district and state in Civics and Economics.
Despite the schools' academic strengths, they face challenges related to their diverse student populations and high rates of economic disadvantage. Culpeper Middle has a more diverse student body, with 30.21% Hispanic and 12.57% African American students, while Floyd T. Binns Middle has 26.19% Hispanic and 13.74% African American students. Both schools have relatively high free and reduced lunch rates, at 50.09% and 52.76%, respectively. The district's resource allocation, with similar spending per student and smaller class sizes at Floyd T. Binns Middle, suggests a focus on addressing the unique needs of these students.
