Claggett Middle School stands out for its diverse student population, with a higher percentage of minority students compared to nearby schools. In the 2022-2023 school year, the student body was 81.21% White, 5.05% African American, 5.89% Hispanic, and 7.01% two or more races. Academically, the school consistently performs well on state assessments, with proficiency rates exceeding the state averages in most subject areas, particularly in 8th-grade Science and 6th, 7th, and 8th-grade Mathematics. The school's performance is particularly strong for certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic students in English Language Arts and African American students in the same subject.
However, Claggett Middle School is not without its challenges. The school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 7.9% in the 2019-2020 school year to 20.4% in the 2022-2023 school year. Additionally, when compared to nearby middle schools, such as A.I. Root Middle School, Claggett Middle School does not always outperform its peers. The school's relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 22.3% in the 2022-2023 school year, suggests that it serves a more affluent population, which may contribute to its academic success. Nevertheless, the school's student-teacher ratio of 16.4 and per-student spending of $7,891 in the 2018-2019 school year are slightly higher and lower, respectively, than some of the higher-performing nearby schools, such as Copley-Fairlawn Middle School.
