Summary:
For parents considering middle school options, Crockett County Consolidated Central School District is served by a single middle school, Ozona Middle, which educates 143 students in grades 6 through 8 and has a very low student-teacher ratio of 7.7 to 1.
Ozona Middle presents a mixed picture of academic performance. The school shows a clear strength in 8th grade mathematics, where 73% of students were proficient in 2025-2026, significantly outpacing the state average of 47%. However, this success is not consistent across all subjects. The same 8th graders struggled profoundly in social studies, with only 8.5% reaching proficiency compared to the state's 31.7%. A notable "7th grade slump" is evident, particularly in math, where proficiency drops from 51.9% in 6th grade to just 17.1% in 7th grade. This pattern suggests a potential challenge in the 7th-grade curriculum or instruction that parents should be aware of. On a positive note, the school's overall state ranking has been steadily improving, moving from the 53rd percentile to the 61st percentile over three years.
Despite the small class sizes, which often allow for more individualized attention, the school's performance is uneven. The exceptional 8th grade math scores may be driven by a specific program or teacher, while other areas like social studies and 7th grade math clearly need more support. With 62.9% of students economically disadvantaged and a zero percent dropout rate, the school serves a diverse student body. Parents should note that while the school has clear areas of excellence, particularly in 8th grade math, they may want to inquire about the support systems in place for 7th graders and for subjects like social studies where performance lags significantly behind state averages.
