Summary

Leland E Edge Middle is a public middle school located in Nevada, Texas, serving 1,036 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Community Independent School District, which is ranked 575 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Leland E Edge Middle's performance on STAAR tests is generally below the state and district averages across most subjects and grade levels, particularly in mathematics. However, the school's Algebra I end-of-course proficiency rate is relatively high, significantly outperforming the state and district averages. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with the school performing relatively well for African American students but struggling with its Hispanic, White, English Language Learner, special education, and economically disadvantaged populations.

The school also faces a concerning trend of gradually increasing dropout rates, which should be closely monitored and addressed through targeted interventions and support for at-risk students.
