Summary

Glover Middle School is a public school in the Spokane School District serving about 540 students in grades 6 through 8, and it faces significant academic challenges with proficiency rates in English, math, and science that are below both district and state averages.

The school's situation is notable when compared to others in the area, as it spends more per student than nearly all nearby schools, including higher-performing ones like Sacajawea Middle School and Highland Middle School in the Mead School District. Despite this high level of funding, Glover's overall state ranking is in the bottom quartile, which presents a puzzle about how its resources are used. There are, however, some positive signs of recent improvement in its ranking and a particular strength in science performance relative to its other subjects.

Performance varies considerably within the Spokane School District, with Glover's results differing greatly from a school like Sacajawea Middle School. The school also shows very different levels of success for students in different grades, with seventh grade struggling the most in English. While the school has a high percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, similar to neighboring schools such as Denny Yasuhara Middle School and Shaw Middle School, its modest recent gains suggest some strategies may be starting to have a positive effect.
