Corsicana Middle

Summary:

Corsicana Middle is a public middle school serving grades 7-8 in the Corsicana Independent School District (ISD) in Corsicana, Texas, with a student population of 928 that is predominantly Hispanic (54.31%), followed by White (21.55%) and African American (16.27%) students. Despite its large size, Corsicana Middle has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Texas middle schools by SchoolDigger, with a current ranking of 1891 out of 2361 schools and a 1-star rating out of 5.

Corsicana Middle's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is significantly below the state average across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 31.63% of 7th graders and 36.47% of 8th graders were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state averages of 52.08% and 54.09%, respectively. The school's performance in STAAR Mathematics is even lower, with only 22.72% of 7th graders and 22.66% of 8th graders meeting proficiency, compared to the state averages of 31.89% and 40.23%. When compared to nearby schools, such as Alamo Middle and Ennis J.H. in the Ennis ISD, as well as Blooming Grove J.H. and Rice Intermediate/Middle School in the Blooming Grove ISD and Rice ISD, respectively, Corsicana Middle's performance is significantly lower.

Corsicana Middle's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (75.54% in 2022-2023) and the achievement gaps among racial subgroups are areas of concern. White students generally perform better than their African American and Hispanic peers, with the latter two groups consistently scoring below the state averages. Additionally, the school's performance is particularly low for students with special needs, English Language Learners, and economically disadvantaged students, all of whom score well below the state averages. These factors suggest that Corsicana Middle faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its diverse student population and may require targeted interventions and support to improve academic outcomes.

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.
