Baker Middle

Summary:

Baker Middle is a public middle school located in Corpus Christi, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a student population of 880. The school is part of the Corpus Christi Independent School District (CCISD), which is ranked 595 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Baker Middle consistently outperforms the CCISD and Texas state averages in STAAR/Reading, STAAR/Mathematics, and STAAR EOC/Algebra I and Biology, particularly for its Asian, White, and Gifted and Talented student subgroups. The school also maintains relatively low dropout rates compared to the district and state. However, Baker Middle's high percentage of students from low-income families (65.11%) and decreasing per-student spending may present challenges in maintaining and improving its academic performance.

While Baker Middle outperforms many of the nearby CCISD middle schools, such as Kaffie Middle, Driscoll Middle, and Grant Middle, it is still outperformed by the exceptional London Middle, which is part of the London Independent School District and serves a more affluent student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
