Summary

Knox J H is a high-performing middle school in The Woodlands, TX, serving 1,395 students in grades 7-8 as part of the Conroe Independent School District (Isd), and it has earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger every year since 2015-2016, consistently ranking in the top 10% of Texas middle schools.

Knox J H stands out for its exceptional mathematics performance, particularly in Algebra I, where 99.59% of students were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year—nearly double the district and state averages. This far exceeds nearby peers like York J H (93%) and even the higher-ranked McCullough J H (97%). The school also excels across all core subjects, with 8th-grade Social Studies proficiency (59.28%) nearly double the state average (31.69%) and significantly higher than York J H (44.5%). A notable pattern is the "7th Grade Math Dip" shared with nearby schools, but Knox J H's 7th-grade math scores (44.5%) are nearly three times higher than York J H's (15.22%), highlighting its effectiveness in bridging this challenge.

Knox J H successfully integrates students from two very different feeder intermediate schools: Collins Intermediate, an academic powerhouse with proficiency rates in the 80%+ range, and Wilkerson Intermediate, which has lower proficiency rates and a higher percentage of students on free/reduced lunch. Despite these differences, Knox J H achieves uniformly high results, demonstrating its ability to level the playing field. The school also spends less per student ($7,972) than Springwoods Village Middle ($11,050), yet achieves top-tier outcomes, underscoring the impact of effective teaching and school culture. While overall performance is stellar, there are slight dips in performance for English Language Learner and Special Education students, though these groups still perform above average.
