Iltexas Grand Prairie Middle

Summary:

Iltexas Grand Prairie Middle is a public charter middle school serving grades 6-8 in Grand Prairie, Texas, with a diverse student population that struggles academically compared to state and district averages.

The school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is significantly below state and district averages across most subject areas and grade levels, particularly in mathematics and social studies. While the school's African American and English Language Learner students perform relatively well compared to their peers at other Uplift Education schools, Hispanic, White, and Special Education students struggle, and the school's Gifted and Talented program ranks in the bottom quarter of Texas middle schools. Despite these challenges, the school maintains a very low dropout rate, and its performance on the STAAR EOC Algebra I and English I Reading exams is higher than the district and state averages.

When compared to other nearby middle schools, such as Workman J.H. and Carter J.H., which also struggle academically, Iltexas Grand Prairie Middle generally performs worse. However, the school's performance data reveals significant racial disparities, with African American and Asian students generally outperforming their Hispanic and White peers, a pattern consistent with broader trends in Grand Prairie Independent School District (Isd) and Arlington Independent School District (Isd).

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.
