Summary

Clear Lake Intermediate is a middle school in Houston, TX, serving 839 students in grades 6-8 as part of the highly-rated Clear Creek Independent School District (Isd), though it currently holds a 2-star rating and ranks in the 48th percentile statewide.

This school presents a unique paradox for parents. On one hand, Clear Lake Intermediate has seen a significant decline from its historical 3-4 star performance, now scoring below district averages in core subjects like reading, math, science, and social studies. For example, 6th-grade math proficiency is 33.2% compared to the district's 53.45%, and 8th-grade social studies is 20.23% versus 42.58%. This downward trend is especially notable when compared to nearby schools like League City Intermediate and Westbrook Intermediate, which have surged to 5-star ratings. However, the school excels dramatically in advanced coursework: students taking Algebra I achieve 92.86% proficiency, and those in Biology achieve 100% proficiency—both well above district averages. This "bimodal" performance means the school is exceptional for high-achieving students ready for acceleration, but struggles with foundational instruction for students performing at or near grade level.

For families, this creates a very specific profile. If your child is ready for advanced math and science, Clear Lake Intermediate is a hidden gem that rivals top 5-star schools. However, for students needing strong grade-level support, other options like Space Center Intermediate or Brookside Intermediate may offer more consistent performance. The school's challenges are not fully explained by its moderate economic disadvantage rate (57.33% free/reduced lunch), as similar schools like Space Center Intermediate (53.38%) perform better overall. This suggests the issue is specific to Clear Lake's leadership and resource allocation, making it a school that requires careful consideration based on your child's individual academic needs.
