Summary

Taylor County Learning Center is a middle school in Abilene, Texas, serving grades 5-11 with a total enrollment of 308 students. The school is part of the Abilene Independent School District, which is ranked 722 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Taylor County Learning Center has some concerning performance metrics compared to nearby middle schools. The school has had a relatively high dropout rate, ranging from 1.4% to 1.5% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the dropout rates of other nearby middle schools like Clack Middle, Madison Middle, Craig Middle, and Mann Middle, all of which have dropout rates around 1.4%. Additionally, Taylor County Learning Center's test scores are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all subject areas and grade levels.

While Taylor County Learning Center has a relatively high spending per student at $14,622, this does not seem to be translating into improved student outcomes. The surrounding middle schools, with lower spending per student ranging from $9,136 to $11,687, are outperforming Taylor County Learning Center on key metrics like test scores and dropout rates. This suggests that there may be underlying issues within the school or district that need to be addressed, such as teacher quality, curriculum, or student support services, in order to improve the quality of education for all students in the Abilene Independent School District.
