The academic challenges faced by Andrew A Langston Middle School are not unique to this school; nearby School 22-Lincoln, School 4-George Mather Forbes, and School 8-Roberto Clemente also have very low proficiency rates, likely due to the high rates of poverty and low-income students in the Rochester City School District as a whole, which has a free/reduced lunch rate of 91.63%. Despite the relatively high spending per student in the district, ranging from $32,066 to $41,749, the schools are not seeing commensurate improvements in student outcomes, suggesting that additional resources alone may not be the sole solution to the district's educational challenges.
