Middle Schools in Detroit Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

The Detroit Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one middle school, Detroit J H, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas middle schools and has struggled to meet state academic performance standards, particularly on STAAR tests.

Detroit J H faces several challenges, including a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (61.79%) and below-average proficiency rates on STAAR tests across multiple subjects and grade levels. However, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.8 and higher per-student spending ($13,080) compared to the state average, suggesting that the district is allocating significant resources to the school. Despite these investments, the school's academic performance remains a concern, and the district may need to explore more targeted strategies to support student learning and improve educational outcomes.

Overall, the data highlights the need for the Detroit Independent School District (Isd) to closely examine the factors contributing to the academic challenges faced by Detroit J H and implement evidence-based interventions to help the school and its students succeed.
