Truett Wilson Middle

Summary:

Truett Wilson Middle is a public middle school located in Haslet, Texas, serving 1,414 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Northwest Independent School District. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in reading and math.

Truett Wilson Middle's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. The school performs relatively well for Gifted and Talented students, ranking in the top 28% of Texas middle schools, but struggles with lower-performing subgroups, such as Low Socioeconomic Status students, who rank in the bottom 31% of Texas middle schools. This suggests the school may need to implement more targeted interventions and support programs to address the needs of its diverse student population.

When compared to other middle schools in the Northwest Independent School District, such as John M Tidwell Middle and Timberview Middle, Truett Wilson Middle generally underperforms, particularly in mathematics and science. This indicates the school may benefit from learning best practices from its higher-performing counterparts within the district. Additionally, the school's relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients may be contributing to its lower academic performance, as research has shown a strong correlation between socioeconomic status and educational 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.
