Summary

Hedrick Middle School is a public middle school in Medford, Oregon, serving 970 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Medford School District 549C. The school has shown a mixed academic performance, with strengths in certain areas but also challenges that present opportunities for improvement.

Academically, Hedrick Middle School has outperformed the district and state in 8th-grade English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, but has struggled with the performance of 6th and 7th-grade students in these subjects. The school has also demonstrated strong performance for some student subgroups, such as Hispanic and Migrant students, but has faced challenges with Gifted and Talented students. One area of concern is the school's relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, which may be impacting overall academic achievement.

Comparing Hedrick Middle School to nearby institutions provides valuable context. The Valley School of Southern Oregon, a public charter middle school, has consistently outperformed Hedrick in academic test scores, while the nearby McLoughlin Middle School and Oakdale Middle School have generally underperformed Hedrick. With higher spending per student and a relatively low student-teacher ratio, Hedrick Middle School appears to have the resources to support student learning, suggesting opportunities to optimize the use of these resources and address the school's areas of concern.
