Little Cypress J H

Summary:

Little Cypress J H is a public middle school located in Orange, Texas, serving 497 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Little Cypress-Mauriceville Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 735 out of 968 school districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Little Cypress J H has a higher percentage of White students (74.04%) compared to the state average, it struggles academically, with lower proficiency rates in reading, math, science, and social studies across all grade levels compared to state and district averages. The school's performance on STAAR tests has declined over the past several years, dropping from a 3-star rating to a 1-star rating. Certain student subgroups, particularly Hispanic, White, and English Language Learner students, perform in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools. However, the school's Gifted and Talented program has shown stronger performance, ranking in the top half of Texas middle schools.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Central Middle, Orangefield J H, and Port Neches Middle, Little Cypress J H generally performs below the academic standards of its peers, particularly in schools within the same district and those in higher-performing districts. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (47.69%) may contribute to its lower academic performance, suggesting a need for targeted interventions and support programs to address the challenges faced by this population.

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.
