This high-performing school consistently ranks among the top middle schools in the state, thanks to its rigorous curriculum, dedicated faculty, and the support of the Comal Independent School District.
Spring Branch Middle's academic performance is truly impressive, with STAAR test scores that significantly exceed state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects.

While Spring Branch Middle excels in many areas, the school's performance on STAAR tests for its English Language Learner (ELL) and Gifted and Talented student subgroups is slightly lower compared to other subgroups, suggesting potential areas for improvement. However, the school's overall success can be attributed to its strong academic focus, low dropout rates, and smaller class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 13.4 in 2022-2023, lower than the state average. When compared to schools in the North East Independent School District and the Boerne Independent School District, Spring Branch Middle generally demonstrates stronger academic performance, particularly in mathematics and science.
