Ganado Jh

Summary:

Ganado Jh is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Ganado Independent School District in Ganado, TX, with a student population of 164 that is predominantly Hispanic (57.32%) and White (39.02%). The school has been consistently rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, ranking in the middle range among Texas middle schools.

Ganado Jh's test scores are generally below the state averages across various STAAR assessments, with proficiency rates in reading, math, science, and social studies all lower than the Texas state averages. However, the school has performed relatively well in supporting its Gifted and Talented and English Language Learner (ELL) students, ranking in the top 3 stars out of 5 in recent years. Additionally, Ganado Jh has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.6 to 14.6 over the past few years, which may contribute to more personalized attention and support for students.

Compared to nearby middle schools such as El Campo Middle, Industrial J H, and Edna J H, Ganado Jh generally performs worse on standardized test scores and overall statewide rankings. This suggests the school may need to learn from the practices and strategies of its higher-performing counterparts. Additionally, Ganado Jh has a high percentage of students (54.88% in 2022-2023) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant socioeconomic disadvantage among the student population, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges.

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.
