Summary:
There is one middle school, Pro-Vision Middle, serving grades 6 through 8 in the The Pro-Vision Academy district in Houston, TX (77051), with a total enrollment of 140 students.
Pro-Vision Middle faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the 1st or 2nd percentile statewide over the last three years. The school has a 100% free/reduced lunch rate, indicating a student body with high economic need, and a student-to-teacher ratio of 20:1. Test scores are critically low compared to state averages. For example, in the most recent data, 6th grade reading proficiency was 4.35% versus the state average of 53.52%, and 6th grade math proficiency was 0% versus 38.57%. However, there is a positive trend of improvement as students advance: reading proficiency rises from 4.35% in 6th grade to 24.14% in 8th grade, and math goes from 0% to 11.11%. The school's dropout rate of 2.0% is lower than the district average of 4.6%, a small but encouraging sign of student retention.
Mathematics is the most severe area of weakness, with 0% of 6th graders and 0% of 8th graders proficient in math and social studies, respectively. Year-over-year data shows significant volatility, such as 6th grade reading dropping from 15.56% to 4.35% in one year, which may be due to the small student population. The highest proficiency score for any subject over the last two years is 24.14% in 8th grade reading, still less than half the state average. For parents, this school requires aggressive, targeted interventions, especially in math, to address the acute academic crisis, though the improving trend through the grades offers a small measure of hope.
