Middle Schools in Beaumont Independent School District (Isd)

The Beaumont Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to 5 middle schools serving grades 6-8. These schools, which include Marshall Middle, Odom Middle, Vincent Middle, M.L. King Middle, and Smith Middle, vary significantly in their academic performance and overall quality.

Odom Middle stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, with a 2-out-of-5 star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly higher proficiency rates on standardized tests compared to the district and state averages. Marshall Middle is the second-best school, with a 1-out-of-5 star rating and better-than-average test scores. The remaining three schools, Vincent Middle, M.L. King Middle, and Smith Middle, struggle with significantly lower test scores and statewide rankings.

The data also reveals that the Beaumont Independent School District (ISD) as a whole faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch across all schools. This suggests that factors beyond just funding and resources may be contributing to the performance disparities between the schools, and targeted interventions and support may be necessary to address the specific challenges faced by the lower-performing schools in the district.
