Summary:
Malakoff Independent School District (ISD) in Texas has one middle school, Malakoff Middle, which serves grades 6-8 and has consistently ranked in the top quarter of Texas middle schools based on the SchoolDigger ranking system. With a 5-star rating in 2021-2022 and a 4-star rating in 2022-2023, Malakoff Middle is a strong-performing school within its district and the state.
Malakoff Middle's student population of 323 is diverse, with 66.25% White, 8.67% African American, 19.5% Hispanic, and smaller percentages of Asian, Pacific Islander, and multi-racial students. However, the school faces socioeconomic challenges, with over 70% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these challenges, Malakoff Middle's STAAR test scores generally exceed the district and state averages, particularly in 8th-grade reading, science, and social studies.
While Malakoff Middle's academic performance is impressive, with a 0% dropout rate, the school's math scores, especially in 6th and 7th grades, lag behind the state average, which could be an area for improvement. The school's consistent high performance and 5-star rating suggest that it is providing a quality education and effectively supporting student learning, but the district and community may need to provide additional resources and support to address the school's socioeconomic challenges and improve math outcomes.
