Alamo J H

Summary:

Alamo J H is a public high school located in Midland, Texas, serving grades 7-12 with a student population of 865. The school is part of the Midland Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 556 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Alamo J H faces several challenges, including a significantly higher Hispanic student population (69.83%) compared to the state average (52.08%) and lower academic performance in core subjects like reading, math, science, and social studies compared to the Midland ISD and Texas state averages. However, the school's Algebra I proficiency rate (63.24%) is a notable strength, significantly exceeding the Midland ISD and Texas state averages. In contrast, nearby schools like Viola M Coleman High School have significantly lower academic performance and higher dropout rates, while Early College H S At Midland College has exceptional academic performance.

Another area of concern for Alamo J H is the increasing dropout rates, which have risen from 0.0% in 2017-2018 to 2.1% in 2021-2022. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 53.07% in 2020-2021 to 62.54% in 2022-2023, suggesting a need for additional support and resources to address socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population. Addressing these areas of concern and leveraging the school's strengths could lead to improved outcomes for Alamo J H students.

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.
