Westview Middle

Summary:

Westview Middle is a public middle school located in Austin, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 718 students. The school is part of the Pflugerville Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 473 out of 968 school districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Westview Middle stands out for several key reasons. It has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (60.17%) compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 37.4% to 52.35% Hispanic students. Academically, Westview Middle consistently underperforms compared to the Pflugerville ISD and Texas state averages on STAAR tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, the percentage of Westview Middle students proficient or better in STAAR Reading ranged from 21.43% to 33.33%, while the Pflugerville ISD and Texas state averages were significantly higher, ranging from 50.54% to 58.67%. Westview Middle's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, ranking in the bottom 25% of Texas middle schools for these subgroups. Additionally, Westview Middle has seen a steady increase in its dropout rate, rising from 0.2% in 2017-2018 to 3.0% in 2020-2021, which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools.

When comparing Westview Middle to other nearby middle schools within the Pflugerville ISD, such as Park Crest Middle and Dessau Middle, Westview consistently underperforms on academic measures, with significantly lower proficiency rates on STAAR tests. This suggests that Westview Middle may be struggling to provide the same level of educational quality as its peers within the district. Additionally, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Westview Middle, ranging from 69.08% to 76.07% over the past few years, coupled with its low academic performance, suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and student achievement.

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.
