Summary:
The Liberty-Eylau Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one middle school, Liberty-Eylau Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. This school faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance and a student population that comes from predominantly low-income backgrounds.
Liberty-Eylau Middle has a diverse student body, with a majority of African American students (61.08%) and a sizable population of White (24.43%) and Hispanic (7.85%) students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is well below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 8th grade reading, only 32% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 56%. The school's dropout rate of 0.6% is lower than the state average, but still an area for improvement.
Despite spending $11,283 per student, which is higher than the state average, Liberty-Eylau Middle's academic challenges persist. This may be due to the high percentage (88.83%) of students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic disadvantages within the student population. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.8 could be an advantage, but targeted interventions and support programs will be crucial to address the complex issues facing this school and improve student outcomes.
