The Summit (Intermediate)

Summary:

The Summit (Intermediate) is a public middle school in Pasadena, Texas, serving grades 5-8 with an enrollment of 80 students. It is part of the Pasadena Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 562 out of 968 school districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The Summit (Intermediate) consistently ranks among the lowest-performing middle schools in Texas, with statewide rankings between 2188 and 2334 out of 2361 middle schools over the past four school years. The school's performance on STAAR tests is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, particularly in Mathematics, where proficiency rates range from 0% to 21.05%, compared to the state averages of 31.89% to 48.96%. The school also ranks among the lowest-performing in Texas for several student subgroups, including African American, Hispanic, English Language Learners, Special Education, and Economically Disadvantaged students.

In comparison, other middle schools in the Pasadena ISD, such as Bondy Intermediate, as well as middle schools in the neighboring Deer Park ISD, such as Deer Park JH and Bonnette JH, consistently outperform The Summit (Intermediate) across all STAAR subject areas and grade levels. The significant fluctuations in spending per student and the low student-teacher ratio at The Summit (Intermediate) suggest potential issues with resource allocation and staffing that may be contributing to the school's poor academic performance.

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.
