Summary:
Grand Saline Independent School District (Isd) has a single middle school, Grand Saline Middle, serving grades 6-8. Located in the small town of Grand Saline, Texas, the school serves a predominantly White and Hispanic student population, with a significant percentage (59.34%) of economically disadvantaged students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Grand Saline Middle School faces some challenges, with its overall performance on the STAAR tests consistently below the state averages across various subjects and grade levels. However, the school stands out for its exceptional performance on the STAAR EOC Algebra I exam, with an impressive 95.45% proficiency rate, far exceeding the district and state averages. This suggests the school may have a strong focus on mathematics instruction, particularly in advanced coursework.
Despite the school's academic struggles, it benefits from a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14:1 and a district-level per-student spending that is higher than the state average. These resources, coupled with the school's exceptional Algebra I performance, indicate potential opportunities for improvement in other academic areas through targeted interventions and resource allocation. As Grand Saline Independent School District (Isd) continues to support its sole middle school, addressing the unique needs of its economically disadvantaged student population will be crucial in driving overall academic success.
