Middle Schools in Greenwood 50

The Greenwood 50 school district in South Carolina is home to three middle schools: Northside Middle, Westview Middle, and Brewer Middle. While all three schools serve economically disadvantaged student populations, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Westview Middle stands out as the highest-performing school in the district.

Westview Middle consistently outperforms the district and state averages on academic measures, earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger compared to 1-2 stars for the other two schools. The school's student population is the least diverse, with a higher percentage of white students, but it still manages to achieve significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels. In contrast, Northside Middle and Brewer Middle generally perform below the district and state averages, with the latter school having the highest percentage of African American students.

The differences in student-teacher ratios and spending per student among the schools suggest that resource allocation and staffing may play a role in the schools' performance. Further investigation into how these factors relate to academic outcomes could provide valuable insights for the Greenwood 50 district as it works to support the academic achievement of its economically disadvantaged and diverse student population across all its middle schools.
