Summary

Austin Middle in Amarillo, TX, serves 708 students in grades 6-8 within the Amarillo Independent School District (Isd), where about 70% of students are economically disadvantaged. This mid-sized school has a student-teacher ratio of 17.9, which is higher than many nearby peers like Mann Middle (13.2) and Houston Middle (12.8), though similar to Bonham Middle (18.9). After reaching a peak in 2021-2022, the school has seen some decline, currently earning a 3-star rating and ranking in the 54th percentile statewide—a middle-of-the-pack position that contrasts sharply with nearby Crockett Middle (79th percentile) and Fannin Middle (21st percentile), highlighting how school-level factors can drive very different outcomes within the same neighborhood.

A standout strength is the school’s Gifted and Talented program, which ranks in the 79th percentile statewide, and its exceptional Algebra I performance: 73.17% of test-takers were proficient, far exceeding the district (55.92%) and state (54.03%) averages. However, this success masks a persistent weakness in 7th-grade math, where only 16.54% of students were proficient—well below the state average of 29.41%. This suggests that while advanced students thrive, the core math instruction for most students needs significant improvement.

The school’s support for different student groups is inconsistent. While Gifted and Talented students excel, Special Education students rank in the 21st percentile, and African American students rank in the 18th percentile. This variability indicates a lack of a consistent, school-wide strategy for all learners. Overall, Austin Middle offers strong opportunities for high-achieving students, but families should be aware of the challenges in 7th-grade math and the need for more targeted support for vulnerable subgroups.
