GREENE COUNTY MIDDLE SCHOOL

Greene County Middle School is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Greene County Comm School District school district, located in Jefferson, IA with about 353 students offering grade levels from 5th Grade to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 25 teachers, Greene County Middle School has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
