Crowley Middle

Summary:

Crowley Middle is a public middle school in Fort Worth, Texas, serving 977 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Crowley Independent School District, which is ranked 750 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Crowley Middle has consistently been ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools over the past decade.

Crowley Middle faces significant challenges compared to its peers. The school has a much higher percentage of African American students (59.16%) and a lower percentage of White (4.81%) and Asian (3.17%) students than the state average. Academically, Crowley Middle consistently underperforms the state and district averages on STAAR assessments, with only 31.52% of 6th graders proficient in reading and as low as 6.25% of 7th graders meeting math proficiency standards. The school struggles to support the academic achievement of its subgroups, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools for African American, Hispanic, and low-income students.

While Crowley Middle has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.9, it spends around $9,600 per student, which is lower than the state average and nearby Fort Worth ISD schools. This suggests the school may be underfunded compared to its peers. Nearby schools, such as Richard Allie Middle and Summer Creek Middle, as well as the Idea Edgecliff College Preparatory charter school, significantly outperform Crowley Middle on academic measures, indicating the need for targeted interventions and additional support to improve educational outcomes at the school.

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.
