Summary:
Anahuac Independent School District (ISD) in Texas has only one middle school, Anahuac Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 706 out of 2,254 Texas middle schools in 2021-2022 to 1,542 out of 2,361 in 2023-2024. Anahuac Middle's performance on STAAR tests is generally below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 18.07% to 47.71% across different grade levels and subject areas.
The school has a diverse student population, with 48.47% White, 11.66% African American, 33.74% Hispanic, and smaller percentages of Asian and students of two or more races. However, a significant portion of the student body (61.35%) is eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income community. Despite the school's above-average spending per student ($11,485) and relatively low student-teacher ratio (13.4), the academic performance data suggests that the resources may not be effectively utilized or allocated to address the specific needs of the students.
Overall, Anahuac Independent School District (ISD) has one middle school that is facing academic challenges, with declining performance and underperformance on standardized tests. The school's demographics and socioeconomic factors may play a significant role in these challenges, and a closer examination of the school's resource allocation and targeted interventions could help identify opportunities for improvement.
