Summary

Carrizo Springs J H is a middle school serving 277 students in grades 7 and 8 within the Carrizo Springs Consolidated Independent School District, located in a high-poverty area where about 75-80% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school has shown a remarkable turnaround, climbing from the 9th percentile statewide in 2020-2021 to the 45th percentile in 2025-2026, earning a consistent 2-star rating after starting from a 0-star rating.

The school’s standout strength is its advanced math program: students taking Algebra I achieve near-perfect proficiency, with 100% proficient in 2025-2026 compared to the state average of 54%. This far exceeds nearby Sterling H Fly Junior High School, which had 90.91% proficiency but a much lower district average. However, Carrizo Springs J H has a unique “math paradox”: 7th-grade math proficiency is very low (10.11% in 2025-2026 vs. state 29.41%), but 8th-grade math jumps above the state average (55.17% vs. state 47.24%), showing the school effectively catches students up. The school also excels with Special Education students, ranking in the 95th percentile statewide in 2024-2025, and consistently earns a 3-star rating for Hispanic students. Compared to Carrizo Springs Intermediate, which struggles with low performance in all subjects, the junior high adds more academic value.

While the school has reduced its dropout rate from 2.0% to 0.0% by 2023-2024, areas needing attention include support for “At Risk” students (40th percentile) and “Gifted and Talented” students (24th percentile). Overall, Carrizo Springs J H is a school on the rise, with a strong Algebra I pipeline and effective remediation, making it a leader compared to other schools in the region.
