Summary

Aguirre J H is a public middle school in Houston, Texas, serving 932 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Channelview Independent School District, which is ranked 687 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Aguirre J H has consistently underperformed the state and district averages in STAAR test proficiency across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 39.39% of 6th graders were proficient in reading, compared to 54.21% statewide. The school also struggles in math, with only 23.08% of 6th graders and 32.71% of 8th graders reaching proficiency. Aguirre J H's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with African American and English Language Learner students performing relatively well compared to their peers statewide, while the school struggles with its Hispanic and White student populations.

Aguirre J H's performance is generally lower than that of nearby schools, such as Alice Johnson J H and the schools in the Galena Park Independent School District, which tend to have higher test scores, lower dropout rates, and serve a slightly less economically disadvantaged student population. While Aguirre J H spends more per student compared to these nearby schools, this does not seem to translate into significantly better outcomes, raising questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation.
