Travis Middle

Summary:

Travis Middle is a public middle school located in Irving, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 971 students. The school is part of the Irving Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 822 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Travis Middle's overall academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages, the school does have some notable strengths. The school performs relatively better in certain areas, such as Algebra I and Biology end-of-course exams, where the proficiency rates are significantly higher than the district and state. Additionally, the school's Asian and African American student subgroups perform better than the overall school, ranking in the top 3 and top 5 in the state, respectively, across multiple years. However, the school's Hispanic, Native American, and multi-racial student subgroups tend to perform below the state and district averages, suggesting a need for more focused efforts to address the unique needs of these populations.

Compared to nearby schools within the Irving ISD, such as Austin Middle, Lamar Middle, and Lorenzo De Zavala Middle, Travis Middle's academic performance is generally lower. However, the school outperforms some of the other Irving ISD schools, such as Crockett Middle and Houston Middle, in certain subject areas and student subgroups. Additionally, Travis Middle's per-student spending has increased in recent years, and the school's student-teacher ratio is comparable to the nearby schools, suggesting that the school has adequate resources and staffing.

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.
