Anahuac Middle

Summary:

Anahuac Middle is a public middle school serving 326 students in grades 6-8 in the Anahuac Independent School District. The school has seen a relatively stable racial makeup, with White students making up around 45-48% of the student body, Hispanic students around 34-39%, and African American students around 8-12%.

Anahuac Middle has faced some academic challenges in recent years, dropping from a high state ranking of #451 out of 2,252 Texas middle schools in 2020-2021 to #1,542 out of 2,361 in 2023-2024. Its performance on STAAR tests is below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 18-48% across different subjects and grade levels. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and Gifted/Talented students performing relatively well, but the school struggling with its African American, English Language Learner, and Multi-racial student populations. However, Anahuac Middle stands out for its exceptional performance on the Algebra I end-of-course exam, with proficiency rates around 90-96% in recent years.

Compared to nearby schools like Devers JH and Barbers Hill Middle North, which rank significantly higher in the state, Anahuac Middle's academic performance lags behind. These nearby schools also tend to have higher proficiency rates on STAAR tests. Despite these challenges, Anahuac Middle has maintained a 0% dropout rate, which is an impressive achievement.

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.
