Summary

Uplift Summit International Middle is a public charter middle school in Arlington, Texas, serving 492 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Uplift Education district, which is ranked 697 out of 961 districts in the state.

Uplift Summit International Middle has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas middle schools over the past several years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger indicating it is performing significantly below average compared to other schools in the state. The school has struggled to perform well across different student subgroups, with proficiency rates on STAAR assessments generally lower than the Uplift Education district and the state of Texas averages. However, the school's performance for special education students is a relative strength, ranking in the top quarter of Texas middle schools in recent years.

Compared to nearby public middle schools in the Arlington Independent School District, such as Workman J.H., Bailey J.H., and Gunn J.H., Uplift Summit International Middle's performance is generally lower, with these nearby public schools tending to have higher statewide rankings, better academic achievement, and lower dropout rates. The school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, ranging from 82.99% to 83.33% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, likely contributes to its overall academic challenges.
