Connally J H

Summary:

Connally J H is a middle school in Elm Mott, TX that serves grades 6-8 and has a student population of 544. The school is part of the Connally Independent School District, which is one of the lowest-performing districts in Texas, ranking 926 out of 968 districts.

Connally J H consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools, with only 22-32% of students proficient in reading and 1-17% proficient in math across grade levels. The school struggles to serve its diverse student population, with African American, Hispanic, and economically disadvantaged students performing particularly poorly, ranking in the bottom 10-20% of Texas middle schools in these subgroups. Connally J H also has a high dropout rate, rising from 0% in 2018-2019 to 2.2% in 2021-2022, which is significantly higher than the state average.

In comparison, nearby schools like China Spring Middle and Bosqueville Middle are ranked in the top half of Texas middle schools and have much higher academic proficiency rates. This suggests that Connally J H's poor performance is representative of the broader challenges within the Connally Independent School District, which will require substantial interventions and support to improve educational opportunities and outcomes for its students.

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.
