Troup Middle

Summary:

Troup Middle is a public middle school in Troup, Texas, serving 248 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Troup Independent School District, which is ranked 188 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Troup Middle stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in STAAR Reading, where 63.04% of 6th graders, 57.14% of 7th graders, and 63.41% of 8th graders scored proficient or better in 2023-2024. The school's Algebra I EOC performance is also exceptional, with 95.24% of students scoring proficient or better, significantly higher than the state and district averages. However, the school faces challenges in addressing the performance gaps of its African American and White student subgroups, which perform below average compared to other Texas middle schools. Troup Middle's Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students, on the other hand, perform well, ranking in the top 25% of Texas middle schools in these subgroups.

Troup Middle's student population is relatively homogeneous, with a majority (69.35%) of White students, followed by Hispanic (16.13%) and African American (12.1%) students. This is quite different from the nearby Hubbard Middle School, which has a more diverse student body. Additionally, Troup Middle has a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with 55.65% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which is higher than the nearby Bullard Intermediate and Bullard Middle schools. The school's higher spending per student ($11,201) and lower student-teacher ratio (11.4) suggest a focus on providing a more personalized educational experience for its 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.
