Missouri City Middle

Summary:

Missouri City Middle is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Fort Bend Independent School District, with a student population of 963 that is predominantly African American and Hispanic.

Despite serving a high-needs student population, with 87.95% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Missouri City Middle consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools on academic performance. The school's proficiency rates on STAAR assessments are significantly below state and district averages, particularly for African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and Special Education students. Missouri City Middle's dropout rates have also been relatively high in recent years, ranging from 0.5% to 1.2%.

When compared to nearby middle schools like Lake Olympia Middle, Dulles Middle, and Quail Valley Middle, Missouri City Middle stands out as an underperforming school, with consistently low rankings over the past decade. While the school's challenges are significant, the data suggests that targeted interventions and support for underperforming subgroups could potentially help drive improvement in the future.

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.
