Summary:
The Gonzales Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one middle school, Gonzales J H, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas middle schools, with a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state.
Gonzales J H's STAAR test scores are generally below the state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates range from 15.42% in 8th grade Social Studies to 72.92% in Algebra I, compared to state averages of 29.64% and 47.01%, respectively. The school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 73.49% in 2023-2024, and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.9 in the same year.
The consistently low performance of Gonzales J H suggests that the school may be facing significant challenges in improving student outcomes. The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students and the district's relatively high per-student spending of $10,412 in 2020-2021 raise questions about the allocation and utilization of resources to support student learning and address the unique needs of the school's demographic. Focusing on strengthening curriculum, instructional practices, and targeted interventions in core subjects could be key areas for improvement at Gonzales J H.
