Summary:
The Webb Consolidated Independent School District in Texas has only one middle school, Bruni Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school faces significant academic and socioeconomic challenges, with consistently low performance on standardized tests despite relatively high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio.
Bruni Middle has a low statewide ranking, placing between 889th and 2,051st out of over 2,300 Texas middle schools in recent years. The school's performance on STAAR tests is generally below the state average across various subjects and grade levels, particularly in math, where 0% of 6th graders and only 20-28.57% of 7th and 8th graders scored proficient or better, compared to state averages of 37.68% (6th grade) to 44.81% (8th grade). The school's dropout rate, however, is 0% for the 2022-2023 school year.
Bruni Middle serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 89.39% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. Despite the school's academic challenges, it spends $23,973 per student, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's small student population of 66 students and low student-teacher ratio of 11:1 suggest that the allocation of resources may be an area for further investigation to understand how to best support student learning and achievement.
