Stroman Middle

Summary:

Stroman Middle is a public middle school located in Victoria, Texas, serving 265 students in grade 8. The school is part of the Victoria Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 790 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Stroman Middle faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Texas middle schools based on the statewide SchoolDigger rankings. The school's performance on STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) tests is significantly lower than the district and state averages across all subject areas and grade levels, with proficiency rates ranging from 11% to 19% in core subjects like reading, math, science, and social studies for 8th grade in 2022-2023. Stroman Middle's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, who rank in the bottom 10-15% of their respective subgroups in Texas. Despite being in the same district, Stroman Middle's performance is significantly lower than the nearby schools, such as Harold Cade Middle and Howell Middle, which have higher academic achievement and better SchoolDigger rankings.

The high percentage of students (74.34%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch at Stroman Middle suggests that socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the school's academic challenges. Stroman Middle has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (76.23%) compared to the nearby schools, which range from 50.14% to 87.69% Hispanic students. The school's consistent low performance and large gaps in test scores compared to the district and state indicate a persistent challenge in academic achievement that may require targeted interventions and support to address.

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.
