The school is part of the Aldine Independent School District, which is ranked 790 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Hambrick Middle has a predominantly Hispanic student population, with over 90% of students identifying as Hispanic.

Hambrick Middle consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools, with a statewide ranking between 1,372 and 2,252 out of over 2,300 schools in recent years. The school's performance on STAAR tests is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 23.8% of 6th graders, 19.49% of 7th graders, and 30.51% of 8th graders were proficient or better in STAAR Reading, compared to the state averages of 54.45%, 52.08%, and 54.09%, respectively. Hambrick Middle has also experienced a concerning increase in dropout rates, rising from 0.3% in 2017-2018 to 2.7% in 2020-2021, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When comparing Hambrick Middle to other nearby schools within the Aldine Independent School District, such as Stovall Middle and Aldine Middle, the academic performance is relatively similar, with all three schools ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools. However, the data shows that several nearby KIPP Texas Public Schools and Idea Public Schools charter schools generally outperform Hambrick Middle and the other nearby public schools on academic measures, suggesting that the charter school model may be more effective in this community.

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.
