Lady Bird Johnson Middle

Summary:

Lady Bird Johnson Middle is a public middle school in Irving Independent School District in Irving, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with an enrollment of 855 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 65.61% Hispanic, 16.61% African American, 9.01% White, 3.51% Asian, and 3.86% Native American, and a high percentage (over 87%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite its diverse student body, Lady Bird Johnson Middle has consistently been ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years. The school's academic performance lags behind the Irving ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR assessments, with proficiency rates in reading ranging from 34-38% and in mathematics from 23-36%, compared to 39-54% and 24-40% for Irving ISD, and 52-54% and 32-37% for Texas, respectively. The school's performance is particularly low for Hispanic, English Language Learner, Low Socioeconomic Status, and Gifted and Talented students.

While the nearby Bowie Middle, Lorenzo De Zavala Middle, and Austin Middle schools generally perform better than Lady Bird Johnson Middle, they also serve student populations with similar socioeconomic and demographic characteristics, suggesting that factors beyond just the school itself may be contributing to the academic challenges. The school's consistently low performance indicates a need for targeted interventions and support to address the underlying factors and improve 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.
