Middle Schools in Dumas Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

The Dumas Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to two middle schools, Dumas J.H. and Dumas Intermediate, both serving students in grades 5-8. While the district as a whole faces challenges in academic performance, Dumas J.H. stands out for its strong performance on the STAAR Algebra I End-of-Course exam, with 85.42% of students scoring proficient or better, significantly higher than the district (59.32%) and state (44.73%) averages.

Dumas Intermediate serves a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 71.93% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, compared to 63.43% at Dumas J.H. This may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance observed at the intermediate school, where proficiency rates on STAAR reading assessments trail the district and state averages.

The racial demographics of the two schools are relatively similar, with both having a majority Hispanic student population. However, Dumas J.H. has a slightly higher percentage of White students (15.43%) compared to Dumas Intermediate (12.44%). Additionally, Dumas J.H. spends more per student ($9,891) than Dumas Intermediate ($8,554), which may contribute to the school's stronger academic performance in certain areas.
