Goodrich Middle

Summary:

Goodrich Middle is a small public middle school in Goodrich, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a student population of just 48 students. The school is part of the Coldspring-Oakhurst Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 856 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Goodrich Middle faces several challenges, including consistently lower test scores compared to state and district averages, a high percentage of students (79%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and a steadily declining statewide ranking over the years. However, the school's performance for specific student subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, is relatively stronger. Nearby schools like Lincoln J.H., Livingston J.H., and Shepherd Middle have higher test scores, lower free/reduced lunch rates, and better statewide rankings, suggesting that Goodrich Middle may benefit from learning best practices from these higher-performing schools.

Despite the relatively high spending per student at Goodrich Middle ($11,882 in 2020-2021), the school's academic performance remains significantly below the state and district averages. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to support student learning. However, the school's strengths in serving specific student subgroups present opportunities for targeted interventions and resource allocation to improve overall student outcomes.

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.
