Summary

General Marshall Middle in Austin, TX, serves 431 students in 6th and 7th grades within the Austin Independent School District (Isd), and is currently ranked in the 22nd percentile statewide with a 1-star rating.

This school presents a striking contrast in math performance. While only 6.8% of 7th graders were proficient in grade-level math in 2025-2026—far below the state average of 29.41%—the school excels in Algebra I, with 75.81% of test-takers proficient, outperforming both the district (51.77%) and state (54.03%). This suggests a highly effective advanced math program that could serve as a model for improvement. Additionally, General Marshall has a lower student-to-teacher ratio (15.4) than high-performing peers like Lamar Middle (17.5) and Kealing Middle (17.2), indicating staffing resources that aren't yet translating into higher overall scores. The school is also a relative bright spot in its neighborhood, ranking higher than nearby Martin Middle (1st percentile), Dobie Middle (3rd percentile), and Webb Middle (2nd percentile).

However, the school faces significant challenges. Its Gifted and Talented program ranks in the 4th percentile statewide, suggesting it may not be effectively serving its highest-ability learners. Performance is also on a downward trend, with 6th-grade reading proficiency dropping from 46.12% to 40.93% between 2024-2025 and 2025-2026. Furthermore, General Marshall's unique grade configuration (only 6th and 7th grades) means students must transition to a different school for 8th grade, which can disrupt academic continuity. While the school offers a strong Algebra I program and more individual attention than some peers, parents should carefully consider these factors when evaluating options.
