Summary:
The Iowa Park Consolidated Independent School District is home to a single middle school, W F George Middle, which serves grades 6 through 8 and has an enrollment of 430 students in the Iowa Park, Texas area.
W F George Middle is a standout school, ranking in the 90th percentile (5 stars) among all Texas middle schools for the 2025-2026 school year, placing it in the top 10% statewide. The school has maintained a high ranking for three consecutive years, never dropping below the 85th percentile. With a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.2:1 and a 0.0% dropout rate, the school provides a supportive learning environment. Reading is a clear strength, with proficiency rates consistently 10-15 percentage points above state averages across all grades. The school also outperforms the state in 8th-grade Social Studies (44.94% vs. 31.69%) and 8th-grade Math (71.10% vs. state average).
However, a critical area for improvement is a dramatic "7th Grade Math Dip," where proficiency dropped from 64.74% in 2024-2025 to just 31.82% in 2025-2026—a decline of over 30 percentage points. This volatility contrasts sharply with the stable, high performance in Reading. Despite nearly 40% of students being economically disadvantaged, the school's top-10% ranking indicates effective teaching and leadership. The 8th-grade Math proficiency also declined slightly from 76.56% to 71.10%, suggesting a need for curriculum review. Overall, W F George Middle offers strong academic programs with a proven track record in Reading, but families should be aware of the recent challenges in middle school math performance.
