Tom Bean Middle

Summary:

Tom Bean Middle is a public middle school located in Tom Bean, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 136 students. The school is part of the Tom Bean Independent School District, which is ranked 432 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Tom Bean Middle has a significantly higher percentage of White students (80.15%) compared to the state average and nearby schools like Gunter Middle, Pritchard J.H., and Van Alstyne J.H., its academic performance on STAAR tests is generally below the state average, with lower proficiency rates in reading, math, science, and social studies across all grade levels. However, the school does perform better than the Tom Bean Independent School District average in most subjects.

Tom Bean Middle's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male students and low-socioeconomic status students performing better than the state average, while female students, Hispanic students, and special education students perform significantly worse. The school's relatively low dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 1% over the past few years, are a positive factor, but the school's higher spending per student ($12,147 in 2020-2021) compared to the state average and nearby schools has not translated into consistently strong academic outcomes, suggesting the need for the district and school leadership to closely examine their strategies and practices to identify areas for improvement and better support all 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.
