Summary

Rose Park Middle is a public magnet middle school serving grades 5-8 in Nashville, Tennessee, with an enrollment of 387 students. This school consistently outperforms the Davidson County and Tennessee state averages in academic proficiency across various subjects and grade levels, particularly in Integrated Math I proficiency.

Rose Park Middle's performance is especially strong for certain student subgroups, such as White students and Special Education students, ranking among the top middle schools in the state for these groups. However, the school's performance for other subgroups, like Low Socio-Economic Status students, is significantly lower, indicating potential equity gaps that the school may need to address. When compared to nearby middle schools in the Davidson County district, Rose Park Middle generally outperforms its peers in academic proficiency and student group performance.

While Rose Park Middle has maintained a strong academic performance, consistently ranking in the top half of Tennessee middle schools, the school has also experienced fluctuations in its chronic absenteeism rate, which may be an area of concern and require further investigation. Overall, Rose Park Middle is a strong-performing middle school within the Davidson County district, providing a high-quality education to its students, but also facing challenges that warrant attention and targeted interventions.
