New Boston Middle

Summary:

New Boston Middle is a public middle school serving 249 students in grades 6-8 in the New Boston Independent School District in Texas. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup that is predominantly White (57.43%), along with significant percentages of African American (20.08%) and students of two or more races (12.05%).

Overall, Texas Middle and Pleasant Grove Middle outperform New Boston Middle in many areas, particularly in mathematics and science. However, New Boston Middle is doing a relatively good job of supporting the academic achievement of its African American and Hispanic student subgroups, ranking in the top half of Texas middle schools for those subgroups. The school's White student subgroup and special education subgroup, on the other hand, perform relatively poorly, ranking in the bottom half of Texas middle schools.

New Boston Middle's high percentage of low-socioeconomic status students, with over 80% of the student population qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, likely presents unique challenges and resource needs that the school must address to support student success. Continued focus on addressing these areas of need, as well as the school's performance in certain subject areas, will be crucial for New Boston Middle's ongoing improvement.

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.
