Trinity J H

Summary:

Trinity J H is a middle school located in Trinity, Texas, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 280 students. The school is part of the Trinity Independent School District, which is ranked 881 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Trinity J H consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of Texas middle schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in STAAR Reading, Math, Science, and Social Studies are significantly below the state averages, often by 20 percentage points or more. Additionally, Trinity J H has a very high percentage of students (over 90%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's racial diversity is higher than the surrounding schools, with a larger percentage of Hispanic and African American students.

Comparing Trinity J H to the nearby Huntsville Intermediate and Mance Park Middle schools, which are part of the Huntsville Independent School District, highlights the need for the Trinity Independent School District to implement more effective strategies and interventions to support student learning and achievement. Despite the high spending per student at Trinity J H, the resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes, particularly for vulnerable populations such as English Language Learners and Special Education 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.
