J L Long Middle

Summary:

J L Long Middle is a public middle school in Dallas, Texas, serving 1,127 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Dallas Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 557 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

J L Long Middle has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students (63.27%) compared to the district and state averages. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally below the district and state averages. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with White students performing relatively well, but Hispanic, African American, and economically disadvantaged students performing much lower. Additionally, J L Long Middle has seen a steady increase in its dropout rate, rising from 0.7% in 2018-2019 to 4.6% in 2021-2022, which is higher than the district and state averages.

When compared to nearby schools, J L Long Middle generally performs worse academically. For example, the nearby William B. Travis Vanguard Academy, a magnet school, consistently outperforms J L Long Middle across all subject areas and grade levels. This may be due to the high percentage of students (60.07%) at J L Long Middle who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low socioeconomic status of the student population. Despite increased per-student spending at the school, from $8,426 in 2018-2019 to $10,344 in 2020-2021, this has not translated into significant improvements in the school's academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just funding may be at play.

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.

They let a child get beat up. The child ended up getting a concussion. The school is not taking responsibility, and to top it off - they're refusing to give out the video to the parents. Close Quote

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.
