Summary

Barrington Middle School is a public middle school located in Lithia, Florida, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 1,279 students. As part of the Hillsborough School District, which is ranked 49 out of 67 districts in Florida and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, Barrington Middle School stands out as a high-performing institution in the region.

Barrington Middle School consistently outperforms the Hillsborough district and the state of Florida in various academic assessments, with 86% of students proficient or better in EOC/Algebra 1 compared to 59% for Hillsborough and 60% for Florida. The school also maintains a strong statewide ranking, consistently placing in the top 30% of Florida middle schools over the past several years, earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. While Barrington Middle School's chronic absenteeism rate has been slightly higher than the state average, it has remained relatively stable, and the school has a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (35.81% in 2023-2024) compared to some nearby schools.

Interestingly, some of the nearby schools, such as Randall Middle School and Progress Village Middle Magnet, also demonstrate strong academic performance, with higher proficiency rates in certain subjects and grade levels. Progress Village Middle Magnet, a public magnet school, has a higher statewide ranking and a more diverse student population compared to Barrington Middle School. Additionally, Barrington Middle School's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 20.3 to 22.5 over the past few years, may contribute to its academic success, and its per-student spending, which is higher than the state average, could also be a factor in its strong performance.
