Navo Middle

Summary:

Navo Middle is a public middle school located in Aubrey, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 1,051 students. The school is part of the Denton Independent School District, which is ranked 565 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Navo Middle has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past several years, dropping from a high of 349 out of 1,987 Texas middle schools in 2013-2014 to 1,670 out of 2,361 in the current 2023-2024 school year, with a 1-star rating.

Navo Middle has a diverse student population, with a significant African American (40.72%) and Hispanic (25.21%) representation, along with smaller percentages of White (23.31%), Asian (3.52%), and other racial groups. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates in reading (45.06% to 54.45% state) and math (15.71% to 31.89% state) for 7th grade are significantly below the state averages. Additionally, Navo Middle's performance on STAAR tests varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Asian and White students tending to perform better than African American and Hispanic students.

When compared to the nearby schools, such as Trent Middle and Cobb Middle in the Frisco Independent School District, Navo Middle generally performs worse academically, with lower STAAR proficiency rates and a lower statewide ranking. This suggests that the school may benefit from learning from the practices and strategies of the higher-performing nearby schools. Additionally, the higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at Navo Middle, coupled with the school's lower academic performance, suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and student achievement, highlighting the need for the school and district to address the challenges faced by students from low-income backgrounds.

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.

Open Quote Would be a great school, if it weren't for all the bullies. So many horrible things go on at Navo. I've gone home crying many times. Call the vice principal (not the principal), he'll tell you everything. 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.
