Krum Middle

Summary:

Krum Middle is a public middle school in Krum, Texas, serving 541 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Krum Independent School District, which is ranked 335 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Krum Middle stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in reading, where 62.63% of 6th-grade students were proficient or better on the STAAR test, compared to the state average of 54.45%. The school also has a relatively high-performing Gifted and Talented program, ranking in the top 25% of Texas middle schools. However, Krum Middle's math scores tend to be lower than the state and district averages. Compared to nearby schools in the Denton Independent School District, Krum Middle generally performs better in terms of overall state rankings and test scores, particularly in reading, but the Denton ISD schools tend to have more diverse student populations.

Krum Middle serves a relatively affluent student population, with a lower percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (37.34%) compared to many of the nearby schools. This socioeconomic factor likely contributes to the school's academic performance. However, Krum Middle's performance on STAAR tests varies significantly by student subgroup, with the school struggling with lower rankings and test scores for African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students.

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.
