McCamey Middle

Summary:

McCamey Middle is a public middle school in McCamey, Texas, serving 153 students in grades 5-8. The school is part of the McCamey Independent School District, which is ranked 864 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

McCamey Middle faces significant challenges, with a student population that is 75% Hispanic and a high percentage (66.67%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. The school's academic performance is consistently in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools, with STAAR test scores well below state averages. Only 27-45% of students meet proficiency in reading, and just 7-32% meet proficiency in math. In comparison, the nearby Crane Middle School has slightly higher academic performance and a lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

Despite the school's low academic performance, it has maintained a 0% dropout rate in recent years, which is a positive indicator. However, the school's consistent ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of its student population and improve educational outcomes. The challenges faced by McCamey Middle appear to be specific to the local community and district, rather than a regional issue, as indicated by the performance of the nearby Crane Middle School.

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.
