Summary

Heritage Academy Of Del Rio Middle is a small charter school in Del Rio, TX, serving 254 students in grades 5 through 8, with over 85% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. This school stands out for its exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio of 16.5:1, which is better than nearby San Felipe Memorial Middle (19.6:1) and Del Rio Middle (18.3:1), all while operating with lower per-student spending.

Heritage Academy shows remarkable strength in serving students with high needs. In the 2024-2025 school year, it ranked in the 92nd percentile for low socio-economic status students and the 93rd percentile for special education students—far exceeding its overall rank. The school also excels in advanced math, with 80% of students passing the Algebra I EOC exam, significantly outperforming the state average of 54%. However, the school's overall performance has been volatile, dropping from the 47th percentile in 2024-2025 to the 27th percentile in 2025-2026, suggesting that its successes may not be consistent year to year.

One notable pattern is that student proficiency improves dramatically as they progress through the grades. In 2025-2026, only 12.5% of 5th graders were proficient in reading, while 61.6% of 8th graders achieved that level. The school also maintains a perfect 0.0% dropout rate over the last five years, indicating strong student retention. While San Felipe Memorial Middle and Del Rio Middle offer more stable overall performance, Heritage Academy demonstrates a higher ceiling for specific subgroups and a nimble approach to addressing academic needs, making it a compelling option for families seeking targeted support within the Heritage Academy district.
