Summary:
The Leeds Middle School is the sole middle school located in Leeds City, Alabama, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 461 students. While the school's performance is mixed, with strengths in 8th grade English/Language Arts and science, it faces challenges in math proficiency across all grades.
Leeds Middle School has maintained a 3 out of 5 star rating from School Digger over the past three years and is ranked between 187-204 out of 437-442 Alabama middle schools, placing it in the middle of the pack statewide. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 14.8% is higher than the state average, which may be an area of concern. Economically, 62.04% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

The school's spending per student in the 2018-2019 school year was $10,345. Overall, the data suggests that Leeds Middle School has room for improvement, particularly in the area of math achievement, but also highlights some potential strengths and areas of focus for the school and district to build upon.
