Summary

Anthony Middle is a small, rural school in Anthony, TX, serving 170 students in grades 6-8 within the Anthony Independent School District (Isd), and it has achieved a remarkable turnaround from a 1-star rating five years ago to a consistent 3-star rating today, now ranking in the 58th percentile statewide.

The school’s standout strength is its exceptional math program. In 8th grade, 79.31% of students were proficient in math, far exceeding the state average of 47.24% and outperforming nearby schools like Hornedo Middle (53.07%) and Parkland Pre-Engineering Middle (57.41%). Anthony Middle also excels at accelerating students into Algebra I, with 84.21% of test-takers scoring proficient, compared to 54.03% statewide. This success is especially impressive given that over 76% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school is particularly effective at supporting its core student groups, with low-income students ranking in the 72nd percentile and Hispanic students in the 69th percentile statewide. Additionally, special education students rank in the 70th percentile, a significant improvement that many schools struggle to match.

While math is a clear strength, the school has a notable weakness in 8th-grade social studies, where only 10.42% of students were proficient, well below the state average of 31.69%. Despite this, Anthony Middle has maintained a zero dropout rate for five consecutive years, reflecting a supportive environment. Compared to larger, more affluent schools like Hornedo Middle (84th percentile) and Canutillo Middle, Anthony Middle matches or exceeds them in math and Algebra I performance, proving that a small, high-poverty school can achieve outstanding results in key academic areas.
