Summary:
Mineola Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to a single middle school, Mineola Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. This school has consistently performed well, ranking in the top 500 middle schools in Texas for the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 school years, placing it in the top 21% and 22% of middle schools in the state, respectively.
Mineola Middle's performance on STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) tests is generally above the district and state averages, particularly in reading and Algebra I. The school has a low dropout rate of 0.3% for the 2022-2023 school year. However, while the school's reading proficiency rates are impressive, its mathematics proficiency rates are generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in 6th and 7th grade, suggesting an area for improvement.
With a student-teacher ratio of 10.7, which is lower than the state average, and spending $12,320 per student, which is higher than the state average, Mineola Middle appears to be well-resourced. However, the school faces challenges in supporting its student population, with 66.27% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic need. The school's efforts to address these socioeconomic challenges may contribute to its relatively high spending per student.
