Summary:
The New Caney Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to 4 middle schools serving grades 6-8: Woodridge Forest Middle, Keefer Crossing Middle, White Oak Middle, and Pine Valley Middle. These schools serve a diverse student population, with Hispanic students making up the largest racial group across the district.
Woodridge Forest Middle stands out as the top-performing school, consistently outperforming the district and state averages on STAAR/STAAR EOC assessments. It also has the lowest dropout rate at 0.2% and the highest spending per student at $9,671. In contrast, Keefer Crossing Middle and White Oak Middle generally lag behind the district and state in academic performance, while Pine Valley Middle shows mixed results, with stronger performance in 6th and 7th grade reading and 7th grade math.
The data reveals significant disparities in academic achievement and resource allocation among the middle schools in the New Caney ISD. Further investigation into the factors contributing to these differences, such as teaching quality, school-specific programs, and socioeconomic factors, could help the district address educational inequities and ensure all students have access to a high-quality education.
