West Oso J H

Summary:

West Oso J H is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the Corpus Christi Independent School District in Corpus Christi, Texas, with a student population of 434 that is predominantly Hispanic (86.41%).

While West Oso J H has consistently been ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas middle schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, the school's performance among certain subgroups is relatively stronger. For example, the school's African American and White student subgroups perform better compared to their peers at the school, and the English Language Learner (ELL) student subgroup has performed relatively well, ranking in the top 3 stars out of 5 on SchoolDigger for the past three years. Additionally, the school's Algebra I end-of-course exam performance is significantly higher than the district and state averages, as well as the nearby schools like Tuloso-Midway Middle and Haas Middle.

However, the school faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, with STAAR test scores that are significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, particularly in mathematics. Additionally, West Oso J H has a very high percentage of students from low-income families, with 83.41% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, and has seen a steady increase in its dropout rate, from 0.0% in 2017-2018 to 1.9% in 2020-2021, which is higher than the dropout rates of the nearby schools.

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.
