While Maple Avenue Middle School performs well overall, there are notable disparities in the performance of certain student subgroups, particularly African American, Hispanic, and Special Education students. Compared to nearby middle schools, such as Acadia Middle School and Gowana Middle School, Maple Avenue Middle School generally outperforms its peers in academic performance, with higher proficiency rates in ELA and Math. However, the school's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $12,033 to $21,451 over the past few years, may raise questions about the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the school's educational model compared to other high-performing schools in the area.
