Summary:
The city of Springfield, Kentucky is home to a single middle school, Washington County Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has seen a slight decline over the past two years, dropping in its statewide ranking and overall SchoolDigger rating.
While Washington County Middle School outperforms the Washington County district and state averages in mathematics for 6th and 7th grades, it falls behind in 8th grade. In reading, the school's performance is mixed, with 6th and 7th graders scoring above the district and state, but 8th graders scoring below. The school's performance in other subject areas, such as science, writing, social studies, and editing/mechanics, is generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages.
The school serves a relatively high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 68.06% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. Despite this, the school's per-student spending is higher than the state average, and its student-teacher ratio is lower, suggesting a focus on resource allocation. However, the declining performance and uneven academic results suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement in addressing the specific needs of the school's student population.
