Summary

Grant Middle in Corpus Christi, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 772 students in grades 6-8 within the Corpus Christi Independent School District (Isd), and it has shown a remarkable upward trend, jumping from the 35th percentile statewide in 2022-2023 to the 58th percentile in 2025-2026, earning a 3-star rating.

Grant Middle’s standout strength is its exceptional advanced math program. In the 2025-2026 school year, an impressive 91.67% of students taking the Algebra I End-of-Course exam were proficient, far exceeding the district average of 50.66% and the state average of 54.03%. This performance is consistent, with over 90% proficiency in recent years. The school also excels at supporting diverse student groups, ranking in the 86th percentile statewide for English Language Learner performance and the 72nd percentile for African American students. Additionally, Grant Middle has maintained a perfect 0.0% dropout rate for three consecutive years, significantly better than the district average of 1.6%. Compared to nearby schools, Grant Middle outperforms lower-performing peers like Browne Middle and Martin Middle, which have higher rates of economic disadvantage, while its Algebra I scores are competitive with higher-performing schools like Kaffie Middle and Baker Middle.

Despite these strengths, Grant Middle faces a key challenge: improving grade-level math proficiency for the majority of its students. While 7th and 8th-grade math scores are above the district average, 6th-grade math proficiency is low at 30.77%, trailing the state average. This creates a contrast between the school’s success in accelerating a select group into advanced coursework and its struggle to bring all students to grade-level math standards. The school achieves these results with relatively lower per-student spending ($6,576) compared to peers like Haas Middle ($11,558), highlighting efficient resource use. Overall, Grant Middle is a school on the rise, with a strong trajectory and a proven ability to support diverse learners, making it a standout choice in the district.
