Summary

Truitt Middle is a large public school in Houston, TX, serving 1,353 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District (Isd), where over 82% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Truitt shows a striking contrast in math performance. The school excels with its advanced math program: nearly 95% of students taking Algebra I scored proficient or above, far exceeding the district average of 65% and outperforming nearby schools like Cook Middle and Aragon Middle. However, grade-level math proficiency is a significant weakness, with only about 28% of 6th graders and 26% of 8th graders meeting standards—well below the district and state averages. This "barbell" effect means the school effectively serves its top-tier students but struggles to bring the majority to grade-level proficiency. In contrast, Cardiff J H in the nearby Katy Independent School District (Isd) achieves similar Algebra I results (96% proficient) while also outperforming Truitt in 6th-grade math (41% vs. 28%) and 8th-grade science (48% vs. 40%), suggesting a more consistent academic foundation.

On a positive note, Truitt has shown improvement for key student groups. African American students improved from a 1-star to a 3-star rating over two years, and English Language Learners moved from a 1-star to a 2-star rating. The school also maintains a very low dropout rate of 0.3%, significantly better than the district average of 1.1% and peers like Watkins Middle (1.4%) and Labay Middle (1.6%). While Truitt ranks in the 44th percentile statewide (2-star rating), its strong advanced math program and recent subgroup improvements offer bright spots for parents considering the school.
