Summary:
Manassas Park, Virginia is home to a single middle school, Manassas Park Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. While the school has some areas of strength, such as 100% proficiency in Algebra I and Geometry, its overall academic performance and statewide ranking have been relatively low compared to other Virginia middle schools.
Manassas Park Middle School has a diverse student population, with a majority Hispanic (70.03%) and significant Asian (6.5%) and African American (6.76%) representation. However, the school faces socioeconomic challenges, with 74.8% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and per-student spending below the state average. These factors may contribute to the school's below-average performance in core subjects like Mathematics and English Reading, where proficiency rates range from around 36% to 65%.
Despite its current ranking, which has placed it between 255th and 332nd out of 415-422 Virginia middle schools in the past three school years, Manassas Park Middle School's strong performance in certain subject areas and its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.4 to 1 suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement. With the right strategies and resources, the school could potentially raise its overall academic performance and move up in the statewide rankings, benefiting the students and the Manassas Park City Public Schools district.
