Summary:
Normangee Independent School District (Isd) is home to a single middle school, Normangee Middle, which serves grades 6 through 8 with a total enrollment of 161 students. This small school has shown a consistent upward trend in its state ranking over the past three years, moving from the 62nd percentile to the 67th percentile, and it maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 11.6:1, which suggests smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students.
Normangee Middle demonstrates standout performance in several areas, most notably a perfect 100% proficiency rate in Algebra I, which far exceeds the state average of 54.03%. The school also excels in 8th-grade Science, with a 67.31% proficiency rate compared to the state's 46.25%, and 7th-grade Math, where 64% of students were proficient versus the state average of 29.41%. However, performance is inconsistent across grade levels and subjects; 8th graders in the most recent year scored below state averages in Reading, Math, and Social Studies, suggesting a potential need for targeted support for that cohort. The school also experiences dramatic year-over-year volatility, such as 7th-grade Reading proficiency dropping from 66.67% to 36.21% in one year, which may be influenced by the small class sizes.
With a spending level of $10,024 per student and a 0.0% dropout rate, Normangee Middle appears to operate efficiently while showing academic improvement. The school's 50.93% economic disadvantage rate is a key demographic factor, but the positive ranking trend and strong results in advanced math and science indicate that the school is leveraging its resources effectively. For parents, this school offers a close-knit environment with clear strengths in specific subjects, though the variability in performance by grade and year means it is important to monitor individual student progress closely.
