Summary:
Diboll Independent School District (ISD) in Texas has a single middle school, Diboll J H, serving grades 6-8. This middle school serves a diverse student population, with a majority Hispanic enrollment, and faces challenges in academic performance, particularly in math, science, and social studies, despite spending above the state average per student and maintaining a relatively low student-teacher ratio.
Diboll J H has consistently been rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger and ranked between 1211 and 1313 out of 2,254 to 2,361 Texas middle schools in the past three school years. While the school's reading proficiency rates are on par with or slightly below state and district averages, its math proficiency rates are significantly lower, ranging from 29.35% to 39.83% proficient or better across grades 6-8. Additionally, the school's science and social studies proficiency rates are also below state averages. However, Diboll J H's Algebra I proficiency rate of 84.21% is significantly higher than the district (32.23%) and state (44.73%) averages, indicating the school's strength in preparing some students for advanced coursework.
Despite the academic challenges, Diboll J H has a 0.0% dropout rate, which is an excellent outcome. Additionally, the school's diverse student population and relatively small class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 10.2 to 1, could be leveraged to address the performance gaps and support student success. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (71.06%) also suggests that the school community faces significant economic challenges, which may require additional resources and support to address the needs of its economically disadvantaged students.
