Summary:
The Millville School District in New Jersey has only one middle school, Lakeside Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. The data indicates that Lakeside Middle School is a consistently low-performing school, ranking in the bottom half of New Jersey middle schools and receiving a 1-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Lakeside Middle School's academic achievement is significantly below state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Algebra I, and Science proficiency. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 22.3% to 27.8% in ELA and 5.1% to 10.4% in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 56.1% to 57.1% in ELA and 20.7% to 39.8% in Mathematics. The school's Algebra I proficiency rate of 52% was also lower than the state average of 72.7%, and its 8th-grade Science proficiency of 5.2% was well below the state average of 19%.
The data also reveals that Lakeside Middle School faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with 74.95% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The school's student-teacher ratio of 9.6 is lower than the state average, and its per-student spending for the 2018-2019 school year was $9,743. These factors suggest that resources may not be effectively allocated to address the school's academic performance issues, and the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students may contribute to the challenges the school is facing.
