Uplift Education - Infinity Preparatory Middle School

Summary:

Uplift Education - Infinity Preparatory Middle School is a public charter middle school in Irving, Texas, serving grades 6-8. With a predominantly Hispanic student population, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the years, dropping from a high of 379 out of 1,987 Texas middle schools in 2013-2014 to its current rank of 1,781 out of 2,361 in 2023-2024.

Compared to nearby public schools, Uplift Education - Infinity Preparatory Middle School has significantly lower test scores across various subjects and grade levels, with its 8th grade reading proficiency rate at 47.2% in 2023-2024, compared to the Uplift Education district's 47.27% and the state's 54.09%. The school's performance also varies greatly among different student subgroups, with African American students performing relatively well, while Hispanic and English Language Learner students rank in the bottom 1,500 and 1,720 Texas middle schools, respectively. Despite these challenges, the school has maintained a low dropout rate, similar to the nearby public schools.

The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 58.55% to 78.99% over the past few years, indicates that it serves a predominantly low-income community. This, combined with the school's declining statewide ranking and achievement gaps among student subgroups, suggests that Uplift Education - Infinity Preparatory Middle School faces unique challenges in serving its diverse student population effectively. Addressing these issues will likely require targeted interventions, additional resources, and a focus on improving the educational experiences and outcomes for all students at the school.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
