Summary:
The Rockport-Fulton Independent School District (Isd) is home to a single middle school, Rockport-Fulton Middle, which serves 665 students in grades 6 through 8 in the coastal Texas community.
Rockport-Fulton Middle presents a complex academic profile with stark contrasts. The school’s standout strength is its advanced math program: an exceptional 93.75% of students taking Algebra I were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year, far exceeding the state average of 54.03%. However, this success is not reflected in grade-level math, where proficiency rates are critically low. Only 7.63% of 7th graders and 17.39% of 6th graders met state standards in math, creating a massive 64-point gap between the school’s advanced and general math performance. Reading is a consistent weakness across all grades, with proficiency rates ranging from 35.22% in 6th grade to 46.63% in 8th grade, all well below state averages. A bright spot is 8th grade Social Studies, which saw a remarkable 16.84 percentage point improvement to 37.02% proficiency, now above the state average.
Despite these academic challenges, the school maintains a low dropout rate of 0.6% (below the district’s 1.5%) and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.9:1, with per-student spending of $9,957. However, the school’s state ranking has declined to the 25th percentile, suggesting that resources alone are not translating into broad academic success. The data reveals a school that excels with its top-tier math students but struggles to lift the majority of its learners to grade-level proficiency, particularly in reading and general mathematics. For parents, this means Rockport-Fulton Middle offers a strong advanced track but requires careful attention to core subject support for most students.
