Summary:
The 67410 zip code is home to a single middle school, Abilene Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 and is part of the Abilene school district. While Abilene Middle School has seen some fluctuations in its statewide ranking and star rating from SchoolDigger, it has consistently outperformed the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency across all grade levels. However, the school has underperformed the state average in Mathematics proficiency, an area that may require additional attention and resources to improve student outcomes.
Abilene Middle School's student population faces significant economic challenges, with over 55% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This high rate of economic disadvantage could impact learning and achievement. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5% in the 2024-2025 school year is an area of concern that may require targeted interventions to address.
Despite these challenges, Abilene Middle School's performance in ELA and its role as the sole middle school option for families in the 67410 zip code make it an important institution in the local community. Further analysis and comparison to district-level data could provide valuable insights to support decision-making and educational planning for this school and the broader Abilene school district.
