NEWPORT MIDDLE SCHOOL

Newport MS is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Newport SD school district, located in Newport, PA with about 257 students offering grade levels from 6th 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 19 teachers, Newport MS has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. 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.

Newport Middle School, located at 500 Caroline Street in Newport, Pennsylvania, serves as a central educational hub for students in the Newport School District. The school is dedicated to bridging the transition between elementary and high school, focusing on providing a supportive environment that fosters academic growth, social development, and personal responsibility during the formative middle school years.

The facility is situated within the small, close-knit community of Newport, which is part of Perry County. As a local institution, the middle school emphasizes strong connections between students, faculty, and families. Through its curriculum and extracurricular offerings, Newport Middle School aims to prepare students for the academic rigors of high school while encouraging them to explore their interests and become active, contributing members of their school community.
