Summary

Borger Middle is a public middle school in Borger, Texas, serving 317 students in grades 7-8. It is part of the Borger Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 431 out of 961 school districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Borger Middle has shown a mixed performance on STAAR tests compared to state and district averages. While its 8th-grade students performed significantly better than the state average in STAAR Reading, Mathematics, and Science, the 7th-grade students underperformed the state average in STAAR Reading and Mathematics. However, the school has consistently excelled in STAAR EOC Algebra I, with 75% of students scoring proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 47.01%. Borger Middle has also shown varying performance across different student subgroups, with female, Hispanic, and multi-racial students outperforming their African American and White peers.

Despite the school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, Borger Middle has maintained relatively low dropout rates. Compared to the nearby Sanford-Fritch J.H. school, which is part of a different school district, Borger Middle generally outperforms Sanford-Fritch J.H. in academic measures, particularly in STAAR Reading and Mathematics. The school's consistent performance in STAAR EOC Algebra I and its ability to support students from low socioeconomic backgrounds are commendable, but the disparities in student group performance warrant further investigation and targeted interventions by the school's leadership and the Borger ISD.
