Summary:
The Jefferson Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one middle school, Jefferson J H, which serves students in grades 6-8. This middle school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages, ranking in the bottom half of Texas middle schools and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Academically, Jefferson J H struggles, with proficiency rates in reading, math, science, and social studies significantly below the state averages. The school's student population is predominantly White (61.86%), with a significant African American population (28.23%) and smaller percentages of Hispanic, Asian, and Native American students. Additionally, a high percentage of students (73.27%) are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population.
Despite the relatively high per-student spending ($11,547) and small class sizes (student-teacher ratio of 10.2) in the Jefferson Independent School District (Isd), the academic performance of Jefferson J H remains a concern. This suggests that simply increasing financial resources may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes, and that addressing socioeconomic and equity-related challenges may be crucial in supporting the school's academic progress.
