Despite its small size, Middle School Right Fit has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 5.5 to 22 over the past three years, significantly lower than other middle schools in the Rochester Public School District like John Adams Middle and Willow Creek Middle. However, the school's consistently poor academic performance and high percentage of economically disadvantaged students suggest that the small size may not be enough to overcome the challenges facing the school and its students.
