Lanny Frasier Middle

Summary:

Lanny Frasier Middle is a public middle school in Mesquite, Texas, serving around 1,050 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Mesquite Independent School District, which is ranked 601 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Lanny Frasier Middle has a diverse student population, with a majority Hispanic (69.81%) and significant African American (19.71%) and White (7.24%) representation. The school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally below the state average, but it performs better than the Mesquite ISD average in most areas. However, there are significant performance gaps between different student subgroups, with Hispanic and English Language Learner students performing relatively better compared to African American, Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status students. Despite these challenges, Lanny Frasier Middle has maintained a low dropout rate and serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with over 85% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Compared to nearby schools within the Mesquite ISD, such as Dr. Don Woolley Middle and New Middle, Lanny Frasier Middle generally outperforms these schools academically, despite serving a more economically disadvantaged student population. However, when compared to high-performing schools outside the district, such as the School for the Talented & Gifted in Pleasant Grove, the academic gap is much more pronounced, highlighting the need for Lanny Frasier Middle to implement more effective strategies to improve overall student achievement.

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.
