Middle Schools in Greenville Public School District

The Greenville Public Schools district in Mississippi is home to two middle schools, T.L. Weston Middle School and Coleman Middle School, both of which serve grades 6-8. However, the data reveals that neither school is a standout performer, with both ranking relatively low within the state.

Academically, both T.L. Weston and Coleman Middle Schools struggle, with proficiency rates well below the state average in most subject areas and grade levels. The one exception is Algebra I, where T.L. Weston had a 75% proficiency rate, outperforming the state average of around 67%. Both schools also face high chronic absenteeism rates, at 23.9% for the 2022-2023 school year, which may be contributing to their low academic performance.

Additionally, the data shows that 100% of students at both schools qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population. This can present additional challenges for student learning and achievement. The student-teacher ratio also varies between the two schools, with T.L. Weston having a higher ratio of 16.5 compared to 12.2 at Coleman Middle School, which may suggest differences in staffing and resource allocation.
